TROUBLE-SHOOTING
13
The electrical trouble-shooting procedures that follow
require access to components and terminals of the
electrical control panel shown in Fig. 6 on page 21.
Electrical controls are reached by removing screws
that fasten the control panel to the frame. The panel
may be pulled forward for testing while interconnect-
ed to the cooker circuits or disconnected at the pin
connection for complete removal and repair.
INCOMING POWER:
Before trouble-shooting any of the electrical parts or
assemblies, verify that power is being supplied to the
cooker. Incoming power is connected at the boiler (or
direct-connected steam) control box located in the
base cabinet. With power connected to the cooker, an
AC volt-meter is used to measure 120 volts across L1
and L2. If 120 volts is present, and the cooker will not
operate, the fault lies within the electrical circuits of
the cooker.
ELECTRIC INSPECTION:
The rst step in any electrical trouble-shooting pro-
cedure is a thorough physical inspection of all wiring
connections.
WARNING:
Before removing control panel or checking connec-
tions and wiring, be sure that the circuit breaker for in-
coming power is OFF. When power is supplied, all ex-
posed terminals of the control panel carry 120 volts.
Check all wiring connections by hand to assure that
both ends of all connection points are tightly secured.
Use a screwdriver to tighten connection points. If nec-
essary, visually inspect all quick-disconnect terminals
for evidence of corrosion. Terminals in this condition
should be separated, cleaned with emery cloth until
shiny, and tightly reconnected.
60 MINUTE TIMER:
TIMER CONTACTS:
Defective timer contacts will result in failure of either
cooker compartment to operate. When this occurs,
remove the control panel and proceed as follows:
Turn off power to the cooker at external circuit
breaker.
Disconnect all ve wires from timer terminals. (see
Fig. 2, page 11).
