Plunger Switch Removal and Replacement
Removing and replacing the plunger switch requires access from
both the top and front of the range.
Be sure to check QuickFinder for relevant information, documentation,
and the correct part number when replacing this component.
1. First follow steps
1–8
of the
procedure,
starting on page
2. First make a note how the wire connectors are attached to each
terminal on the plunger switch.
NOTE:
It is always recommended to label and tag all wires, wire
connectors, and harnesses prior to disconnecting them so as to
correctly identify their connections/locations when reassembling.
Alternatively, you can photograph prior to disconnecting (for
example, with your mobile phone).
3. Detach all four wire connectors from the four terminals on the
plunger switch.
4. In order to remove the plunger switch, from inside the cavity press
the two metal tabs on the sides of the plunger switch (see
Figure 81) as you pull the plunger switch outward from the front of
the range. You may need to pry the bezel of the plunger switch
out with a flat-blade screwdriver in order to pull it out (see
Figure 83, page 58).
