ELECTRICAL TEST EQUIPMENT

The equipment required to service Maytag
products depends largely upon the condition
you encounter. Locating a malfunction will
often require the use of electrical testing
equipment such as:
Analog Test Meter
can be used to check for
open or closed circuits,
measure resistance, AC
and DC volts, and tem-
perature.
Clamp-On Ammeter
can be used to detect
shorts. Over-
loads on the
circuit breaker
or fuse can be
traced to either
the dryer or circuit
breaker by check-
ing the dryer
current draw.

Description Part Number

Analog Test Meter 20000005

Digital Watt/Amp/Volt/Ohm/

Temperature M et er 20000019

Clamp-On Ammet er 20000002

AC Voltage Sensor 20000081

AC Voltage Sensor
can be used to alert you
if AC voltage is present so
proper safety precautions can
be observed. The tip of the sensor
will glow bright red, if voltage is be-
tween 110-600 volts AC.
Digital Watt/Amp/Volt/Ohm/Temperature
Meter
Measures power (wattage), AC/DC volts, AC/
DC amps, temperature (C & F) OHMS resis-
tance, continuity and capacitance. Features
large LCD display w/backlight and analog
bar graph to show tendencies. Includes: AC
power adaptor for measuring wattage and
meter leads.
