SECTION 5. TROUBLE-SHOOTING
5.4.4 60-MINUTE TIMER
5.4.4.1 TIMER CONTACTS
Defective timer contacts will result in failure of ei-
ther cooker compartment to operate. When this
occurs, remove the control panel (
see Subsection
6.3.4
), and proceed as follows:
Turn off power to the cooker at external cir-
cuit breaker.
Disconnect all five wires from timer termi-
nals (
see Figure 5-1
).
Connect an ohmmeter between terminals 1
and 3.
Rotate timer dial beyond the “0-Minute” point
(
any setting
) to obtain a reading of zero ohms
on the ohmmeter. If zero ohm reading can-
not be obtained, timer contacts are defective
and the timer must be replaced.

Move ohmmeter leads to terminals 1 and 4.
Rotate timer dial to “0-Minute” position (
an
audible click indicates correct position
). If
zero ohm reading cannot be obtained, the
timer is defective and must be replaced.
Remove ohmmeter and replace all five leads
on timer terminals as shown in Figure 5-1.
5.4.4.2 TIMER MOTOR
A defective timer motor will cause continuous
operation in the TIME mode, with the timer dial
failing to return to the “0-Minute” position. Since
thermostatic switch failure can cause the same
symptom, fault must first be isolated to the timer
by testing the thermostat (
see Subsection 5.4.8
).
To confirm timer motor condition, proceed as fol-
lows:Ful te nemplint, nem pra? Palis cont.
