3.Remove the two screws from the upper corners of the control panel and allow the control panel to swing down.

4.Unplug the wiring harness from the 15-pin connector on the interface board and disconnect the grounding wire from terminal adjacent to the 15-pin connector on the back of the controller. Remove the control panel assembly by lifting it from the hinge slots in the control panel frame.

5.Disconnect the wiring from the component to be replaced, being sure to make a note of where each wire was connected.

6.Dismount the component to be replaced and install the new component, being sure that any required spacers, insulation, washers, etc. are in place.

NOTE: If more room to work is required, the control panel frame assembly may be removed by removing the hex head screws that secure it to the fryer cabinet (see illustration below). Removing the component box itself from the fryer is not recommended due to the difficulty involved in disconnecting and reconnecting the oil-return valve rods, which pass through openings in the component box.

7.Reconnect the wiring disconnected in Step 3, referring to your notes and the wiring diagrams on the fryer door to ensure that the connections are properly made. Also, verify that no other wiring was disconnected accidentally during the replacement process.

8.Reverse Steps 1 through 4 to complete the replacement and return the fryer to service.
