Procedure F: Secondary Interlock System Test; Procedure G: Monitor Switch Test - Sharp R-426LS Service Manual

R426LS

[7] Procedure F: SECONDARY INTERLOCK SYSTEM TEST

1. DOOR SENSING SWITCH
1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
2. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.
4. Isolate the switch and connect the ohmmeter to the common (COM.) and normally open (NO) terminal of the switch. The meter should indicate an
open circuit with the door open and a closed circuit with the door closed. If improper operation is indicated, replace the door sensing switch.
5. Reconnect all leads removed from components during testing.
6. Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).
7. Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.
8. Run the oven and check all functions.
NOTE: If the door sensing switch contacts fail in the open position and the door is closed, the cooling fan, turntable and oven light will be activated by
RY1.
2. SECONDARY INTERLOCK RELAY (RY2)
1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
2. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.
4. Disconnect two (2) wire leads from the male tab terminals of the Secondary Interlock Relay. Check the state of the relay contacts using a ohmme-
ter. The relay contacts should be open. If the relay contacts are closed, replace the circuit board entirely or the relay itself.
5. Reconnect all leads removed from components during testing.
6. Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).
7. Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.
8. Run the oven and check all functions.

[8] Procedure G: MONITOR SWITCH TEST

1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
2. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.
4. Before performing this test, make sure that the primary interlock switch and the secondary interlock relay are operating properly, according to the
above Switch Test Procedure. Disconnect the wire lead from the monitor switch (COM) terminal. Check the monitor switch operation by using the
ohmmeter as follows. When the door is open, the meter should indicate a closed circuit. When the monitor switch actuator is pushed by a screw
driver through the lower latch hole on the front plate of the oven cavity with the door opened (in this condition the plunger of the monitor switch is
pushed in), the meter should indicate an open circuit. If improper operation is indicated, the switch may be defective. After testing the monitor
switch, reconnect the wire lead to the monitor switch (COM) terminal and check the continuity of the monitor circuit.
5. Reconnect all leads removed from components during testing.
6. Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).
7. Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.
8. Run the oven and check all functions.
