COMPONENT TEST
PROCEDURE
LETTER
CARRY OUT 4R CHECKS
ASYMMETRIC RECTIFIER TEST
CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.
Isolate the high voltage rectifier assembly from the HV circuit. The asymmetric can be tested using an
ohmmeter set to its highest range across the terminals A+B of the asymmetric rectifier and note the
reading obtained. Reverse the meter leads and note this second reading. If an open circuit is indicated
in both direction then the asymmetric rectifier is good. If an asymmetric rectifier is shorted in either
direction, then the asymmetric rectifier is probably faulty and must be replaced with high voltage rectifier.
When the asymmetric rectifier is defective, check whether magnetron, high voltage rectifier, high voltage
wire or filament winding of the power transformer is shorted.
CARRY OUT 4R CHECKS
NOTE: FOR MEASUREMENT OF THE RESISTANCE OF THE RECTIFIER, THE BATTERIES OF THE
MEASURING INSTRUMENT MUST HAVE A VOLTAGE AT LEAST 6 VOLTS, BECAUSE
OTHERWISE AN INFINITE RESISTANCE MIGHT BE SHOWN IN BOTH DIRECTIONS.

CARRY OUT 4R CHECKS.
Isolate the switch to be tested and using an ohmmeter check between the terminals as described in the
following table.
CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS
CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS
A. Isolate the high voltage capacitor from the circuit.
B. Continuity check must be carried out with measuring instrument which is set to the highest resistance
range.
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 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
F BLOWN FUSE M8A
CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS
1. If the fuse M8A is blown, there could be shorts or ground in electrical parts or wire harness.
Check them and replace the defective parts or repair the wire harness.
2. If the fuse M8A is blown when the door is opened, check the 1st. latch switch, 2nd. latch switch,
monitor switch, monitor resistor, relay RY1 and relay RY2.
If the fuse M8A is blown by incorrect door switching replace the defective switch(s) and the fuse M8A.
