Step 3. Using a multi-meter set to the ohms setting, measure the resistance of the flammable vapor sensor and resettable ther- mal switch. The resistance must be between 3,000 and 48,000 ohms. If the resistance is out of this range, verify that the re- settable thermal switch has not been tripped. If it hasn’t,
