Instruction 1: Wire in redundant heater when heater-circuit failure occurs between heater splice and dispenser
cavity (See Wiring Diagram). Cut white wire two inches away from 10-pin connector. Splice one of the Blk/Wh leads
from wire harness to loose ends of the white wire. Next, cut the brown wire two inches from the 10-pin connector.
Splice the other Blk/Wh wire to the two-inch stub of the brown wire at Pin 3 of the 10-pin connector. Tape off the
remaining, loose end of the brown wire.

NOTE: Never wire in both heaters at the same time. Doing so will ruin the PCB.

Instruction 2: Wire in redundant heater when heater-circuit failure occurs in white wire between top hinge and
heater splice (See Wiring Diagram). Cut white wire two inches from 4-pin connector at top hinge. Splice violet wire
onto two-inch stub of white wire at 4-pin connector. Tape off remaining, loose end of white wire. In cavity, cut white
wire two inches from 10-pin connector. Splice violet wire and one Blk/Wh wire to two-inch stub of white wire at 10-pin
connector. Tape off loose end of white wire. Next, cut brown wire two inches from Pin 3 on 10-pin connector. Splice
second Blk/Wh wire to two-inch stub of Brown wire at 10-pin connector. Tape off loose end of brown wire.

NOTE: Never wire in both heaters at the same time. Doing so will ruin the PCB.

WARNING

To avoid risk of electrical shock that can cause death or severe personal injury, disconnect unit from power before
servicing unless tests require power. Discharge capacitors through a 10,000-ohm resistor before handling. Wires
removed during disassembly must be replaced on correct terminals to ensure proper grounding and polarization.
