Elements
Each element consists of a coil and a sensor. The
resistance value of the coil is less than 1
Ω
at room
temperature. The resistance value of the sensor is
1000
Ω
at room temp (+or-10%). The sensor has a
positive coef
fi
cient. As the temperature increases,
the sensor's resistance increases. The sensor and
coil are replaced as a complete assembly.
To remove heating elements:
Remove the glass maintop. (See
1.
Glass Maintop
.)
Mark the alignment pins and guides for correct
2.
replacement.
Caution:
To prevent damage to element insulation,
care should be taken when handling an element.
Note:
If some insulation should separate from the
element, it can be placed back on the element in its
original position. Do not use any adhesives.
3. Lift an element off the pins and carefully place it
away from the wire entry.
Glass Maintop
The glass maintop must be removed for element,
sensor testing, and touch board replacement. The
glass maintop is attached to the burner box with
twelve 1/4-in hex-head screws (4 on the front, 4 on
the back, and 2 on each side). After removing the
screws, the glass maintop can then be lifted straight
up and placed on a towel or padded surface.
