Electrical Projects The final test is to turn all controls to the highest heat position and allow the unit to operate for 45 minutes at full rated voltage. During this period, none of the controls can cycle. After 45 minutes, rotate control knobs counterclockwise and note where the controls start cycling. Cycling should occur when the controls are somewhere near midrange. Most service operations can be performed through openings in the top deck after the drip pan is removed. Tilt back the element and remove the screw. Snap out the drip pan using a knife blade or screwdriver. When the pan is removed, the element can be pulled out and injected along with the wiring and the thermostat. To replace the drip pan, simply tilt back the heating element, snap pan in place—and install the screw. The heating element can be removed by taking out the two terminal screws which secure the lead wires. NOTE: The terminal block is replaced separately if this part is damaged.

To remove the thermostat, first remove the drip pan, control knob, and felt washer. Hold the thermostat from the inside and take out the screw for the heating element and retaining plate. Then remove the slot-head screw in front of the thermostat control post. Detach the lead wires and lift the thermostat through the burner opening.
