Thanks for the info, it was confusing me that disc 1 was open, but i guess that makes sense, since it controls the convection fan. I will try replacing the capacitor tomorrow, since it is such a cheap part and i have no other way of testing it.
You may know this, but a fully charged cap will not have continuity. It should read infinite.Tankdog said:I agree, and hope it is the capacitor. I only wish that i did not go and replace the control box and thermocouple already. I guess i will caulk that up to a lesson learned from taking advise from my local dealer.
Is ther a way to test the capacitor, should there always be continuity from one side to the other? Also is there a way to test the snap discs, Should they have continuity as well?
I only ask these questions because i have tested the snap discs and they all have continuity, except #1. I also diconected the capacitor and it also does not have continuity.
These two parts seem unrelated and the capacitor seems to make sense, but disc#1 does not sound like it has anything to do with the issues i have been experiencing??
