[title] Test the heating element | |
- | [* icon_note] You will need to use a multimeter to check continuity, here is a guide in case you are unsure how to use one. |
- | [* icon_note] The element on this machine has two sections to allow for variable heat settings. |
- | [* black] The center contact which had the black wire is the common terminal. It is common to both sections of the element. You will first check the resistance between the common terminal and each of the element terminals. |
+ | [* icon_note] These steps will require a multimeter. If you aren't familiar with how to use one, [guide|25632|here is a guide|new_window=true] that will help you |
+ | [* black] You will first check the resistance between the middle common terminal and each of the element terminals. |
[* black] The resistance should be about 20 ohms (Ω). If the resistance is less than 10 Ω, or greater than 25 Ω, you should replace the element. |
