COMPONENT TESTING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Replace all parts and panels before operating.
Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.
INDUCTION ELEMENTS
WARNING
Refer to page 4-4 for the procedure for access-
ing the induction elements.
1. Unplug cooktop or disconnect power.
2. Disconnect the induction element wires
from the electronic board.
3.
Set the ohmmeter to the R x 1 scale.
4. Touch the ohmmeter test leads to the in-
duction element wire terminals. The meter
should indicate less than 1 Ω.
Before testing any of the components, perform
the following checks:
The most common cause for control failure
is corrosion on connectors. Therefore, dis-
connecting
and reconnecting wires will be
necessary throughout test procedures.
All
tests/checks should be made with a
VOM or DVM having a sensitivity of 20,000
ohms-per-volt DC, or greater.
•
•
Check
all connections before replacing
components, looking for broken or loose
wires, failed terminals, or wires not pressed
into connectors far enough.
Resistance
checks must be made with
power cord unplugged from outlet, and
with wiring harness or connectors discon-
nected.
