COMPONENT TESTING

Before testing any of the components, perform
the following checks:
• The most common cause for control failure is
corrosion on connectors. Therefore, discon-
nect and reconnect the wire connectors to
their terminals throughout any of the test
procedures.
• All tests and checks should be made with a
VOM (volt-ohmmeter), or a DVM (digital
voltmeter), having a sensitivity of 20,000
ohms-per-volt DC, or greater.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Voltage is present during these tests.
TEST PROCEDURE
Refer to page 2-4 for the procedure for servic-
ing the electronic range control.
Voltage Test
1. Connect power to the range.
2. Set the voltmeter to read 120 VAC.
3. Touch the test leads to the oven control
P2 connector at terminals 7 (white) and 5
(black). The AC voltmeter should indicate
120 VAC.

ELECTRONIC RANGE CONTROL

• Check all of the connections before you
replace the components. Look for broken, or
loose wires, failed terminals, or wires that
are not pushed firmly onto their connectors.
• Voltage checks must be made with all con-
nectors attached to the boards.
• Resistance checks must be made with power
removed from the appliance, and with the
wiring harness or connectors disconnected.
