Flow Switch Removal

Make sure the stove has fully cooled (approximately 25 minutes) before conducting service. Unplug the
stove to prevent electrical shock.

1. Remove the rear panel of the stove (see rear panel removal).
2. The Flow Switch is located directly below the left hand convection blower. Removal of the left blower is not

required but the fans removal will give better access to the Flow Switch (see section “Blower Removal”).

3. Use a 3/8” nut driver to remove the two locknuts that mount the switch to the stove (set aside for

reinstallation). The nuts are located on the side nearest the rear of the stove.

4. Disconnect the two wires from the wiring harness at the quick connects (orientation does not matter for

reinstallation).
