TEST PROCEDURES

PROCEDURE

LETTER

COMPONENT TEST

6.Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).

7.Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.

8.Run the oven and check all functions.

CAUTION: IF THE THERMAL CUT-OUT OR TEMPERATURE FUSE INDICATES AN OPEN CIRCUIT AT ROOM TEMPERATURE, REPLACE THERMAL CUT-OUT OR TEMPERATURE FUSE.

FSECONDARY INTERLOCK SWITCH TEST

1.Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.

2.Open the door and block it open.

3.Discharge high voltage capacitor.

4.Isolate the switch and connect the ohmmeter to the common (COM.) and normally open (NO) terminal of the switch. The meter should indicate an open circuit with the door open and a closed circuit with the door closed. If improper operation is indicated, replace the secondary interlock switch.

5.Reconnect all leads removed from components during testing.

6.Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).

7.Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.

8.Run the oven and check all functions.

GPRIMARY INTERLOCK SYSTEM TEST DOOR SENSING SWITCH

1.Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.

2.Open the door and block it open.

3.Discharge high voltage capacitor.

4.Isolate the switch and connect the ohmmeter to the common (COM.) and normally open (NO) terminal of the switch. The meter should indicate an open circuit with the door open and a closed circuit with the door closed. If improper operation is indicated, replace the door sensing switch.

5.Reconnect all leads removed from components during testing.

6.Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).

7.Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.

8.Run the oven and check all functions.

NOTE: If the door sensing switch contacts fail in the open position and the door is closed, the cooling fan motor, stirrer motor and oven light will be activated by RY1.

PRIMARY INTERLOCK RELAY (RY2)

1.Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.

2.Open the door and block it open.

3.Discharge high voltage capacitor.

4.Disconnect two (2) wire leads from the male tab terminals of the Primary Interlock Relay. Check the state of the relay contacts using a ohmmeter. The relay contacts should be open. If the relay contacts are closed, replace the circuit board entirely or the relay itself.

5.Reconnect all leads removed from components during testing.

6.Reinstall the outer case (cabinet).

7.Reconnect the power supply cord after the outer case is installed.

8.Run the oven and check all functions.

HMONITOR SWITCH TEST

1.Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.

2.Open the door and block it open.

3.Discharge high voltage capacitor.

4.Before performing this test, make sure that the secondary interlock switch and the primary interlock relay are operating properly, according to the above Switch Test Procedure. Disconnect the wire lead from the monitor switch (COM) terminal. Check the monitor switch operation by using the ohmmeter as follows. When the door is open, the meter should indicate a closed circuit. When the monitor switch actuator is pushed by a screw driver through the lower latch hole on the front plate of the oven cavity
