DIAGNOSIS & TROUBLESHOOTING
Before servicing, check the following:
n Make sure there is power at the wall outlet.
n Are both hot and cold water faucets open
and water supply hoses unobstructed?
n Check all connections before replacing
components. Look for broken or loose
wires, failed terminals, or wires not pressed
into or onto connections far enough.
n A potential cause of a control not functioning
is corrosion on connections. Observe
connections and check for continuity with an
ohmmeter.
n Connectors: Look at top of connector.
Check for broken or loose wires. Check for
wires not pressed into connector far enough
to engage metal barbs.
n Resistance checks must be made with
power cord unplugged from outlet, and with
wiring harness or connectors disconnected.
