9.Measure continuity of ON/OFF switch/ temperature control. Is it operating properly?

10.Unplug control box and measure the resistance across potentiometer. Is it approximately 0 ohms at maximum setting and 50,000 ohms at minimum?

11.Remove edge connector from control box. While kettle is cold or thermistor is removed and allowed to cool, measure the resistance between edge connector’s pins #2 and #7. Is it approximately 100,00 ohms?

Yes

Go to step #10.

No

Replace defective ON/OFF switch/

 

temperature control.

Yes

Go to step #11.

No

Replace defective potentiometer

 

(ON/OFF switch/temperature control)

Yes

Spray contact cleaner on control box

 

terminals and edge connector. Try box

 

again, if the problem still exists, replace

 

defective control box.

No

Replace defective thermistor.

B/ Problem: Kettle heats too slowly or not hot enough. (Note: normal max. operating pressure with an empty kettle is 30-35 psi.)
