Element Strip Diagram
section to test the broil element at
the control module. A Broil Element Relay Test is also available in
Service mode. See the
Service Mode
section for details.
If the wires are disconnected from the element terminals, an
ohmmeter can be used to check for resistance of ~15 ohms.

1. Remove power to the range.
2. Detach the element from the reflector.
3. Remove the two screws from the terminal area on the rear
cavity wall.
