TEST DESCRIPTION
This test will help determine if the “power section” of the switch boards are functioning correctly. This test will NOT indicate if the entire PC board is functional. This resis- tance test is preferable to a voltage test with the machine energized because these boards can be damaged easily. In addition, it is dangerous to work on these boards with the machine energized.
This procedure takes approximately 20 minutes to perform.
MATERIALS NEEDED
