Electrical Connections, Input - Viking DCH3042 Service Manual

To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury, or death, disconnect electrical power source to unit, unless test
procedures require power to be connected. Discharge capacitor through a resistor before attempting to service.
Ensure all ground wires are connected before certifying unit as repaired and/or operational.
In the top rear center of the hood is where the main wire connections are made by the
electrician. Inside the hood a three wire power cable exits the junction box and connects to a
fixed (male) three prong plug (shown unplugged in FIG 7 in the component compartment of
the hood. If now power is coming out of the J-Box, a three wire grounded extension cord can
be used to test the operation of the hood.
To access the internal switches and connections, there are 4 Phillips head screws that must
be removed. FIG 9 shows the right front corner of the hood looking towards the front. With
the light bulbs removed, remove both securing screws on each side of the hood. A 6" long
Phillips head screwdriver (7-10" long) will be required to reach the screws. Two screws (one
on each side come forward into the front frame).
