Water Solenoid Check
Ohms
Volts
1. DISCONNECT POWER AT CIRCUIT BREAKER.
2. Remove right side panel.
3. Disconnect wires B6 and B7 from water solenoid lead wires.
4. Place test probes into water solenoid lead wires as shown above.
5. Resistance should be approximately 800 ohms. Replace if necessary.
6. Apply waterline pressure to water inlet. Water should not leak out of the compression fittings. If necessary,
replace water solenoid. Check to see that water is slowly running into the cooking cavity.
7. Reconnect solenoid lead wires and reconnect power to steamer. When power is turned on with the steamer
cool, the solenoid should “click.” If no click is heard, test for 200 to 240 volts on wires B6 and B7. If 200 to 240
volts is present and the water solenoid does not click, replace water solenoid.
