This transformer supplies the low-voltage power needed by the appliance's control and ignition systems, restoring proper operation of electronic controls and spark ignition when the original transformer fails. What it does:

• Converts incoming mains power into the low-voltage output used by control boards and igniters
• Supports reliable spark generation for gas ignition systems on compatible appliances
• Helps restore responsive electronic controls and displays when a failed transformer causes loss of power
• Prevents intermittent control or ignition failures caused by a defective transformer

• One transformer

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Handle wiring harnesses and connectors carefully; ensure secure connections and proper routing

This fuse protects your appliance's electrical circuit from overcurrent. When the fuse opens, power to the controls or components is interrupted. Replace a blown fuse to restore protection and help prevent additional circuit damage.

• Opens the circuit during a short or surge to protect wiring and electronics
• Signs of a blown fuse: appliance dead/no power, display or controls unresponsive, interior lights out
• Typically fails due to shorted components, pinched wiring, or a power spike
• Tests open (no continuity) with a meter when failed

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug before servicing; some models contain capacitors that can retain a charge.
• Access the fuse, verify it is open with a continuity test, and note its placement.
• Replace only with the exact fuse type and rating specified for your model; never bypass or upsize a fuse.
• If a replacement fuse blows again, locate and correct the underlying short before restoring power.
