TEST DESCRIPTION

This test will help determine if the “power section” of the switch boards are functioning
correctly. This test will NOT indicate if the entire PC board is functional. This resistance
test is preferable to a voltage test with the machine energized because this board can be
damaged easily. In addition, it is dangerous to work on this board with the machine ener-
gized.
