line to line voltage (240 VAC) the element is
defective. If the meter reads zero the wiring to the
element is open.

Broil element does not heat:

1. With the range connected to electrical power, go to
the back of the oven control and measure the voltage
drop between terminals BR and neutral with the
control not programmed (clock operating only). If
the meter reads line to neutral (120VAC) the control
is defective. If the meter reads zero the broil element
or the wiring to the broil element is defective. Go to
step 2.
2. Remove the back from the range to gain access to
the terminals of the broil element. Program the oven
control for broil and measure the voltage drop across
the terminals of the broil element. If the meter reads
line to line voltage (240 VAC) the element is
defective. If the meter reads zero the wiring to the
element is open.
Oven door does not lock when the oven is pro-
grammed for clean:
1. Remove power from the range, go the back of the
control and disconnect the 15 pin plug. Measure the
resistance between pins 5 and 6 of the 15 pin plug
(in the plug). If the meter reads infinity, the lock
motor or the wiring to the lock motor is defective. If
the meter reads around 1500 ohms go to step 2.
2. Measure the resistance between pins 9 and 11 of
the 15 pin plug with the oven door closed. If the
meter reads infinity, the door switch or the wiring to
the door light switch is defective. If the meter reads
zero go to step 3.
3. Measure the resistance between pins 9 and 10 of
the 15 pin plug. If the meter reads infinity the lock
switch or the wiring to the lock switch is defective. If
the meter reads zero the control is defective.
Lock motor runs continuously:
1
With the door in the unlock position, remove power
from the range. Go to the back of the control and
disconnect the 15 pin plug from the control. With an
Ohmmeter measure the resistance between pins 9
and 10 of the 15 pin plug (in the plug). If the meter
reads zero the lock switch or the wiring to the lock
switch is defective. If the meter reads infinity go to
step 2.
2, Depress the arm of the lock switch, and measure
the resistance between pins 9 and 10 of the 15 pin
plug. If the meter reads infinity the lock switch or
the wiring to the lock switch is defective. If the meter
reads zero the control is defective.
NOTE: Always check the cam arm relationship.
Oven door locks but the oven does not heat:
1. If the oven operates in normal bake replace the
control.

Door latch is partly closed with door open:

1. Program the oven for self-clean, and hold in on the
door switch for 30 seconds. Touch cancel and hold
door switch in for 30 seconds. The lock motor should
lock and unlock the door.
