Illustration Component Testing Results
Thermal Cutout Disconnect all wires from TCO.
Measure resistance across terminals.
Cavity Thermal Fuse ................................
Magnetron TCO ................................
Open at 104° C (219° F).
Open at 138° C (280° F) and
closed at 82° C (180° F).
1400,1800 & 2100
Watt units
Diode Assembly
Discharge Capacitors
Remove diode lead from capacitor and
connect ohmmeter.
Reverse leads for second test.
Infinite resistance should be
measured in one direction and 50KΩ
or more in the opposite direction.
NOTE: Analog meter must contain a
battery of 6 volts minimum.
MT2
MT1 GATE
Triac Disconnect wires to triac.
Measure resistance from:
MT1 to MT2 ................................
MT1 to Gate ................................
MT2 to Gate ................................
All terminals to ground ................................
Caution - Do not operate oven
when wire to terminal MT2 is
removed.
Infinite.
Approximately 40 Ω or more.
Infinite.
Infinite.
Capacitor
Discharge Capacitors
Remove wires from capacitor terminals and
connect ohmmeter, set on highest
resistance scale to terminals.
Also check between each terminal and
capacitor case.
Between Terminals: Meter should
momentarily deflect towards zero
then return to over 5 MΩ. If no
deflection occurs, or if continuous
deflection occurs, replace capacitor.
Terminal to Case: Infinite
resistance.
Snubber Assembly Disconnect wires to snubber.
Measure resistance across terminals
Infinite.
Magnetron
Discharge Capacitors
Remove wires from magnetron and connect
ohmmeter to terminals. Also check
between each terminal and ground.
Between Terminals: Less than 1 Ω.
Each terminal to ground measures
Infinite resistance.
NOTE: This test is not conclusive. If
oven does not heat and all other
components test good, replace the
magnetron and retest.
Blower Motor Remove all wires from motor.
Measure resistance across coil
Approximately 30 Ω.
