5-4SURFACE ELEMENTS & LIMITERS
Refer to page 4-5 for the procedure for servic-
ing the elements & limiters.
1. Unplug range or disconnect power.
2. Set the ohmmeter to the R X 1 scale.
3. Raise the cooktop.
4. To test the left front (LF) dual element
and limiter:
a) Disconnect the red wire from the ele-
ment terminal.
b) Disconnect the wires from limiter ter-
minals 1a and 1b.
c) Touch the ohmmeter test leads to the
center wire terminal, and the terminal
that had the red wire connected to it.
The meter should indicate between 35
and 65 Ω.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect power before servicing.
Replace all parts and panels before operating.
Failure to do so can result in death or electrical shock.

d) Reconnect the red wire and disconnect
the orange wire from the dual element
terminal.
e) Touch the ohmmeter test leads to the
center terminal and the terminal that
had the orange wire connected to it.
The meter should indicate between 25
and 55 Ω.
f) Touch the ohmmeter test leads to lim-
iter terminals 1a & 2a. The meter should
indicate continuity (0 Ω).
g) Touch the ohmmeter test leads to lim-
iter terminals 1b & 2b.
With the temperature below 150˚F, the
meter should indicate an open circuit
(infinite).
With the temperature above 150˚F, the
meter should indicate continuity (0 Ω).
