STEP ONE: ISOLAT I N G T H E P RO B L E M
N OTE: Before addressing any specific
problem the unit may have, it is advisable to help
isolate the nature of the problem by running a
general check of the 1) Gas Supply and 2)
Electrical Supply. The following procedure will
narrow the possibilities and help direct you to
the source of the problem. A detailed
Troubleshooting section with specific symptoms
and likely corrective courses of action follows
each sub-assembly Partlist section.
CHECK GAS SUPPLY
First, check to see if the gas has been turned on.
Next, gain access to the regulator by remov-
ing the grates over the cooktop burners on the far
left hand side of the cooktop. Beneath the grates,
towards the rear of the burner box, the regulator is
located between the manifold and rear incoming gas
line. Check the top of the regulator to see that it is set
up for the type of gas supplied to the unit. The cap
on top of the regulator indicates whether the unit is
set up for NATURAL or L.P. gas.
When the gas supply is on, check the gas
pressure with a manometer. The front main open top
burner orifice is the most convenient place to check
gas pressure. To access the main burner orifice,
remove the four (4) screws that hold the burner
hanger down and
A)
move aside the burner assembly
or
B)
disconnect the igniter wires and remove the
entire burner / hanger assembly. Hook up a flexible
line to the main burner orifice, turn that burner on...
the pressure should read 5.0" W.C. for Natural Gas,
and 10.0" W.C. for L.P. Gas. Turn on other burners
and check for an excessive drop in pressure. A large
drop in pressure indicates a gas supply problem relat-
ed to installation, not covered by service warranty.
CHECK ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
First, check to see if the electricity has been turned on.
Next, check power to the cord in the back of
the range and at the wall receptacle. If power is OK
there, the next area to check will be at the service dis-
connect located behind the valve panel. The Valve
Panel can be removed by removing the five (5) screws
that hold it in place. Two (2) screws are located at
each end of the panel, while one (1) screw (painted
Red) behind a Burner Control knob must also be
removed before the valve panel can be removed.
Once the Valve Panel has been removed, unplug and
check for power to the female side of the plug.
Between 110 & 120 volts should be present, if not,
there is a problem with the cord.
Check for power at the Terminal Blocks,
(Black= Live, White = Neutral)
