THERMAL CUT-OUT TEST
CCARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.
Disconnect the leads from the terminals of the thermal cut-out. Then using an ohmmeter, make a
continuity test across the two terminals as described in the below.
CARRY OUT 4R CHECKS.

If incorrect readings are obtained, replace the thermal cut-out.
An open circuit thermal cut-out TC1 (MG) indicates that the magnetron has overheated, this may be
due to resistricted ventilation, cooling fan failure or a fault condition within the magnetron or HV circuit.
An open circuit tthermal cut-out TC2 (OVEN) indicates that the food in the oven cavity may catch fire,
this may be due to overheating produced by improper setting of the cooking time or failure of the control
panel.

PROCEDURE
LETTER
COMPONENT TEST
C. A normal capacitor shows continuity for a short time (kick) and then a resistance of about 10M
Ω
after it has been charged.
D. A short-circuited capacitor shows continuity all the time.
E. An open capacitor constantly shows a resistance about 10 M
Ω
because of its internal 10M
Ω
resistance.
F. When the internal wire is opened in the high voltage capacitor, the capacitor shows an infinite
resistance.
G. The resistance across all the terminals and the chassis must be infinite when the capacitor is
normal.
If incorrect reading are obtained, the high voltage capacitor must be replaced.
CARRY OUT 4R CHECKS.
