7.3.4 Replacing the High-Limit Thermostat
1. Drain the cookpot and disconnect the cooker from the electrical power supply. Disconnect the
unit from the water supply at the rear of the cooker. If the unit is equipped with basket lifts,
remove the basket lift arms. Cut the metal wire ties securing the thermostat tube to the element.
2. Reposition the cooker to allow clear access to the rear of the unit. Remove the cabinet back (on
units with basket lifts, remove all three back panels).
3. At the rear of the cookpot, loosen the small compression nut, then unscrew the large fitting from
the cookpot. Pull the thermostat tube out through the rear of the cookpot.
Unscrew the large fitting
only after loosening the
small compression nut.
Loosen the small
compression nut first.
4. Detach the high-limit thermostat leads (5C and 8C) from the thermostat. Remove the two screws
securing the thermostat to the mounting bracket and remove the thermostat assembly from the
cabinet. (NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the bracket.)
5. Loosen the small compression nut in the large fitting on the replacement thermostat so that the
large fitting will move freely on the capillary tube (the thin, flexible tube). Carefully insert the
replacement thermostat into the cookpot, being careful not to bend the thermostat tube. Position
the tube along the inside of the left leg of the element (as viewed from the front of the cooker)
and secure it in place with two metal wire ties. Apply thread sealer to the large fitting and screw
the fitting securely into the cookpot. When the large fitting is tight, pull gently on the capillary
tube to remove any slack, then screw the small compression nut into the large fitting and tighten.
