SWITCH
May 2009
This switch cuts power to the element when the element is raised.
If a constant "E-31" "HEATING ELEMENTS ARE UP", is
shown on the display, when the elements are lowered into the
vat, check the element safety switch.
To avoid electrical shock or property damage, move the
power switch to OFF and disconnect main circuit
breaker, or unplug cord at wall receptacle.
Checkout:
1. Remove control panel and hinge it down.
2. Refering to the decal on rear of the control panel, locate P9
connector (left vat-split vat) or P10 connector (full or
right vat).
3. Pull connector from the panel and using a multmeter, check
for continuity between 2 appropriate pins (labeled HEAT
SWITCH). With plunger on the safety switch pushed in
(element lowered), the circuit should be closed. With the
element raised, the circuit is should be open. If the switch
proves to be faulty, continue with replacement instructions.
Replacement:

3. Use Phillip's-head screwdriver and remove the 2 screws
securing the switch.
