1. Connector Contact Ensure that J103 and J204 connectors on the Fusing
Assembly are seated securely into the DC Controller
PCA connectors (see Figure 6-29 in Chapter 6 for
locations). Reseat the Fusing Assembly,
2. Thermistor wire open.
Remove the Fuser and measure the resistance
between connectors J204-1 and J204-2 (see
Figure 6-29 in Chapter 6 for location), Resistance
should read approximately 440 K Ohms at 20 Deg C
(room temperature). If the thermistor wire is open,
replace the Fusing Assembly.
3. Thermal Fuse.
Measure the continuity between connectors JI 03-1
and J103-2 on the Fuser (see Figure 6-29, Chapter 6
for location). It should be approximately 29 Ohms. If
the thermal fuse is open, replace the Fusing Assembly
