LINbus Connectors
Caution: To prevent damage to LINbus (Local
Interconnect Networkbus) connections, properly
use (as shown below) a Molex 69008-1070 tool when
removing LINbus connectors.
Note: A Molex 69008-1070 tool will be provided with
any part that requires the LINbus connectors to be
removed.
Correct way: Use side-to-side motion to remove the
LINbus connector.
Note
LINbus is a communication network comprised •
of a LIN master and one or more LIN slaves. In
these cooktops, the fi lter board (right fi lter board
on 36-in. models), acts as the LIN master while
the generator boards and left fi lter board (on
36-in. models) are the LIN slaves.
All of these components receive a signal to •
perform a specifi c task, but only the appropriate
component will act on the message and
respond accordingly. The component which acts
on the specifi c task is based on programming.
Since the LINbus signal is a digital control signal,
special equipment, such as an oscilloscope, is
required to measure it.
