2 Answers Janet, with the power supply turned off and the switch set to a heat position, it would be tested from L1 to H1, L1 to P, and L2 to H2 for continuity. If it has continuity only when the switch is turned to the on position, it is good (an exception to this would be if the surface element only heats on high and does not cycle properly). Read More...
Rabajohn January 01, 2020 for Model Number RCS3014RS02 Does my indicator light run off of the infinite switch? A while back my indicator light loudly blew up and sounded like a 22 cal. rifle went off. Scared me and my wife badly. Have you ever heard of this happening? Or why it happened?
1 Answer Rabajohn, the indicator light WP4456181 is operated by the switches. As the bulb does operate on 240VAC, as it gets older it can blow similarly to a standard bulb under strain. Read More...
