(SOME MODELS)
Description
The automatic oven light switch contacts are
normally open when the oven door is closed
and the plunger is pushed in. When the door
opens, the plunger is pushed out, the contacts
close, and 120-volts is applied to the light,
which then turns on.
Test Procedure

area of the switch rocker is exposed, and 120-
volts is applied to the oven light, which then
turns on.
Test Procedure
