FIG. 2 BYPASS VALVE

P2231.35

 

Location:

The bypass valve is located inside the hood on the left side just in front of the tank.

Test Procedures:

1.Disconnect the brewer from the power source.

2.With a voltmeter, check the voltage across the white/green wire and the white/violet wire on the bypass valve. Connect the brewer to the power source. With the "ON/OFF (Warmer)" switch in the "ON" (upper) position, and the selector switch in the 1-1/2 or 2 gallon position press the start switch. The indication must be:

a.) 120 volts ac for three wire 120/208 volt models and three wire 120/240 volt models.

b.) 200 to 240 volts ac for two wire 200 or 240 volt models.

3.Disconnect the brewer from the power source.

If voltage is present as described, proceed to #4.

If voltage is not present as described refer to the Wiring Diagrams and check the brewer wiring har- ness.

4.Disconnect the white/green wire and white/violet wire. Check for continuity across the bypass valve coil terminals.

If continuity is present as described, reconnect the white/green and white/violet wires to the bypass valve and proceed to #5.

If continuity is not present as described, replace the bypass valve.

5.Check the bypass valve for coil action. Connect brewer to the power source. With the "ON/OFF (Warmer)" switch in the "ON" (upper)position press the start switch. Listen carefully in the vicinity of the bypass valve for a "clicking" sound as the coil attracts and repels the plunger.

If the sound is heard as described, there may be a blockage in the water line before the bypass valve or the bypass valve may require inspection for wear and removal of waterborne particles.

If the sound is not heard as described, replace the bypass valve.

Removal and Replacement:

1.Remove the wires from the bypass valve.

2.Drain enough water from the tank so bypass valve is above the water line.

3.Remove water lines from valve.

4.Remove two nuts retaining bypass valve inside the hood and remove bypass valve.

5.Install new bypass valve.

6.Reconnect the water tubes and the wires to the bypass valve.

7.Refer to FIG. 3 when reconnecting the wires.
