PROCEDURE
LETTER
C HIGH VOLTAGE RECTIFIER TEST
1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.
4. Isolate the rectifier from the circuit. Using the highest ohm scale of the meter, read the resistance across
the terminals and observe, reverse the leads to the rectifier terminals and observe meter reading. If a short
is indicated in both directions, or if an infinite resistance is read in both directions, the rectifier is probably
defective and should be replaced.
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: Be sure to use an ohmmeter that will supply a forward bias voltage of more than 6.3
D HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR TEST
1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
. Open the door and block it open.
3. Discharge high voltage capacitor.
4. If the capacitor is open, no high voltage will be available to the magnetron. Disconnect input leads and check
for short or open between the terminals using an ohmmeter.
Checking with a high ohm scale, if the high voltage capacitor is normal, the meter will indicate continuity
for a short time and should indicate an open circuit once the capacitor is charged. If the above is not the case,
check the capacitor with an ohmmeter to see if it is shorted between either of the terminals and case. If it is
shorted, replace the capacitor.
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.
E SECONDARY INTERLOCK SWITCH AND THIRD DOOR SWITCH TEST
1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
. 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.
SECONDARY INTERLOCK SYSTEM TEST
DOOR SENSING SWITCH
1. Disconnect the power supply cord, and then remove outer case.
. 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,
turntable and oven light will be activated by RY1.
