CARRY 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.

If incorrect readings are obtained, replace the thermal cut-out.
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.

Isolate the switch to be tested and using an ohmmeter check between the terminals as described in
the following table.

THERMISTOR TEST
CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.
Disconnect theconnector B from CPU unit. Measure the resistance of the thermistor with an ohmmeter.
Connect the ohmmeter leads to Pin No's C1 and C3 of the thermistor harness.
