Component Test
POWER TRANSFORMER 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. (See Warnings and Instructions on page 3-1)
4. Disconnect the primary input terminals and measure the resistance of the transformer with an
ohmmeter. Check for continuity of coils with an ohmmeter. On the R x 1 scale, the resistance
of the primary coil should be less than 1 ohm and the resistance of the high voltage coil should
be approximately 84.4 ohms; the resistance of the filament coil should be less than 1 ohm.
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.
HIGH VOLTAGE RECTIFIER 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. (See Warnings and Instructions on page 3-1)
4. Isolate the rectifier from the circuit. Using the highest ohm scale of the meter, read the
resistance across the terminals and observe, reverse the leads to the rectifier terminals and
observe meter reading. If a short is indicated in both directions, or if an infinite resistance is
read in both directions, the rectifier is probably defective and should be replaced.
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: Be sure to use an ohmmeter that will supply a forward bias voltage of more than 6.3 volts.
DO NOT TOUCH THE COMPONENTS OF THE
POWER TRANSFORMER
WHILE
POWER
TRANSFORMER
IS ENERGIZED. IT IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE THIS HAS HIGH VOLTAGE
COMPONENTS. (HIGH VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT AT THE HIGH VOLTAGE TERMINAL, SO
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MEASURE THE FILAMENT AND HIGH VOLTAGE.)
