• Steps down household line power to low voltage for control boards, relays, or lighting circuits
• Provides electrical isolation to help protect sensitive control components
• A failed transformer may leave the control/display dead or make low-voltage features (like lights) inoperative; may also blow a fuse

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Use your model's wiring diagram; transfer wires one at a time to the matching terminals
• Mount securely in the original location; keep wires clear of sharp edges and heat sources
• If a fuse opened, inspect wiring and downstream loads for shorts before restoring power
