Door Latch Assembly
Auto Latch Switches
Both unlock and lock door latch switches may be
replaced.
1. Perform steps 1 through 3, from “Auto Latch Motor”.
2. Disconnect lead wires from door latch switch
(unlock).
3. Set ohmmeter to the RX1 scale.
4. Attach meter leads to door latch switch (unlock).
5. Depress actuator arm. The meter should read
continuity.

Convection Fan Motor
1. Turn off power to oven.
2. Remove oven from wall cutout.
3. Remove access fan plate to gain access to
convection fan motor.
4. Disconnect wires from motor terminal connectors.
5. Attach ohmmeter leads to terminal tabs on motor.
6. A resistance reading of 15-30 ohms should be
indicated but may vary with each motor tested. This
test is to check the motor winding for an open or
shorted winding. If zero or infinite ohms is
indicated, the motor winding has failed and the
motor must be replaced.
