Testing Procedures
!WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death; disconnect power and gas to oven before servicing, unless testing requires power and/or gas.

|
| Oven light housing | Disconnect connector and test | Verify bulb is properly installed. |
|
|
|
| resistance of terminals | Indicates continuity with bulb installed. |
|
|
|
| Measure voltage at oven light: | 120 VAC, refer to wiring diagram for |
|
|
|
|
| terminal identification. If no voltage is |
|
|
|
|
| present at light, check wiring/switches. |
|
|
| Door plunger switch | Remove switch from unit and measure |
|
|
|
|
| the following points: |
|
|
|
|
| C NO | Plunger in continuity, Plunger out infinite. |
|
|
| Autolatch assembly | Disconnect wires and test for | See wiring diagram for schematic layout. |
|
|
| with switch | continuity per wiring diagram. | Access assembly by removing left side |
|
|
|
|
| panel. |
|
|
|
| Refer to Parts Manual for correct |
|
|
|
|
| autolatch switch associated with the |
|
|
|
|
| correct manufacturing number. |

|
| Top surface burner | Verify gas is supplied | Check for obstructions in burner ports. |
9.2 K btu |
|
|
|
| |
16 K btu |

|
| temperature 75°F. |
|
|
| Bake burner | Verify gas is supplied. | Set for Natural Gas from the factory |
|
|
|
| Orifice adjusted for Natural or LP | Adjust as necessary. |
|
|
|
| Check for obstructions or |
|
|
|
|
| contamination in ports | Replace if punctured or torn. |
|
|
| Broil burner | Verify gas is supplied. | Set for Natural Gas from the factory |
|
|
|
| Orifice adjusted for Natural or LP | Adjust as necessary. |
|
|
|
| Check for obstructions or |
|
|
|
|
| contamination in ports | Replace if punctured or torn. |
|
|
| Ignitor | Test for voltage at terminals | 120 VAC |
|
|
|
| Test for the amount of amperage in the |
|
|
|
|
| circuit | 3.2 − 3.6 Amps If not replace. |
|
|
|
| (Ignitor may glow but not have |
|
|
|
|
| sufficient amperage to open valve). |
