Troubleshooting Guide 6. Check the voltage to and from the switch when activated. You should be able to measure line voltage entering and leaving the switch when activated. LINE SIDE LOAD SIDE TO SWITCH, If voltage is present on line side of the switch but not present on load side, the switch is bad. FROM SWITCH, If there is no voltage on line side of the switch, check the wall outlet. If there is voltage at the outlet, then the line cord is bad. 7. Check the switch plate cover. The plate must sit squarely on the bearing wall and the cabinet base. If the switch plate cover is not secure, it will prevent the top from engaging the interlock switch. Insure that the cover is in position. 2. If the motor operates but the green "cleaning air" light does not operate: a. Remove the cell and check to see if the "cleaning air" light comes on. CLEANING AIR LIGHT b. If the light operates with the cell removed, check the cell for broken wires that could cause a dead short. Check to see if the cell plates are bent or touching. Check to see if there is a foreign object in the cell. Check for carbon paths or tracks on the cell ends. If the cell has loose or broken wires or bent plates, replace the cell. If there are no loose or broken wires present, hold the cell up to the light and look for metal shavings or anything that may be causing a short. If nothing is apparent, clear and retest the cell. If the problem persists, replace the cell. If carbon tracking is present on cell ends, replace the cell. 7
