Plunger Switch Removal and Replacement

Removing and replacing the plunger switch requires access from
both the top and front of the range.
Be sure to check QuickFinder for relevant information, documentation,
and the correct part number when replacing this component.
1. First follow steps 1–8 of the Door Latch Removal and
Replacement procedure, starting on page 91.
2. First make a note how the wire connectors are attached to each
terminal on the plunger switch.
NOTE: It is always recommended to label and tag all wires, wire
connectors, and harnesses prior to disconnecting them so as to
correctly identify their connections/locations when reassembling.
Alternatively, you can photograph prior to disconnecting (for
example, with your mobile phone).
·
[For large oven plunger switch]: Detach all four wire
connectors from the four terminals on the plunger switch.
·
[For steam oven plunger switch]: Detach the two wire
connectors from the respective terminals on the plunger switch
(there are four terminals on the plunger switch).
3. In order to remove the plunger switch, from inside the cavity press
the two metal tabs on the sides of the plunger switch (see
Figure 164) as you pull the plunger switch outward from the front
of the range. You may need to pry the bezel of the plunger switch
out with a flat-blade screwdriver in order to pull it out (see
Figure 166, page 95).
4. Replace the plunger switch if needed.
