CAUTION NEW. H.V.
1. High voltage is present at the high voltage terminal of the High
Voltage Inverter (U) including aluminum heat sink during any cook
cycle.
2. It is neither necessary nor advisable to attempt measurement of the
high voltage.
3. Before touching any oven components, or wiring, always unplug
the oven from its power source and discharge the high voltage
capacitors.
5.1. Primary latch switch (door
switch and power relay B)
interlocks
1. Unplug lead connectors to Power Relay B and verify open
circuit of the power relay B 1-2 terminals.
2. Unplug lead connectors to Primary Latch Switch and Door
Switch.
3. Test the continuity of switches at door opened and closed
positions with ohm meter (low scale).
Normal continuity readings should be as follows.
Door Closed Door Opened
Primary Latch switch 0 Ω (Close) Ω (Open)
Door Switch 0 Ω (Close) Ω (Open)
Power Relay B
Ω
(Close)
Ω
(Open)
5.2. Short switch & monitor
1. Unplug lead wires from Inverter Power Supply (U) primary
terminals.
2. Connect test probes of ohm meter to the disconnected
leads that were connected to Inverter Power Supply (U).
3. Test the continuity of short switch with door opened and
closed positions using lowest scale of the ohm meter.
Normal continuity readings should be as follows.
Door Opened Door Closed
0 Ω Ω
5.3. Magnetron
Continuity checks can only indicate an open filament or a
shorted magnetron. To diagnose for an open filament or
shorted magnetron.
1. Isolate magnetron from the circuit by disconnecting the
leads.
2. A continuity check across magnetron filament terminals
should indicate one ohm or less.
3. A continuity check between each filament terminal and
magnetron case should read open.
5.4. Membrane key board
(Membrane switch assembly)
Check continuity between switch terminals, by tapping an
appropriate pad on the key board. The contacts assignment of
the respective pads on the key board is as shown in digital
programmer circuit.
