Description: Description of the disassembly and diagnostic...

Steps:

1. Place the cover in an upright position
2. Lift it out of its joint

3. Remove the 4 shutters from the control panel with a very thin screwdriver. This can be difficult or even impossible.
4. Use a forest as a last resort to start a drill.
5. Catch each shutter with the forest

6. With a PH2 screwdriver remove the 4 screws dia 3 x 13
7. Lift and tilt the panel forward

8. With a PH2 screwdriver remove the 4 upper screws dia 4.2 x 9.5
9. With a PH2 screwdriver remove the 4 lower screws M 4 x 6
10. Lift the crankcase

11. With a PH2 screwdriver remove the 2 screws dia 4.5 x 9.3
12. Tilt and slide the screen down along the two wires of the temperature probe
13. This gives you access to the environment of the two thermal fuses

14. The purpose is to deposit the sheet metal flange that holds the two fuses (two large white and red textile sheaths) and the probe (small white sheath)
15. The maintenance of this flange is ensured by a single sheet metal screw whose head is accessible inside the thermal housing.
16. Use a small ratchet wrench or a short screwdriver with PH2 bit, and continue by hand.

17. The absence of a power supply requires a diagnosis. The electrical test can be facilitated by opening the back of the splices with a cutting clamp.
18. Open only the strict minimum to be able to pass the touch point of the multimeter.
19. Open only the strict minimum to be able to pass the touch point of the multimeter.
20. In our case, using the continuity function of the multimeter, it is the thermal fuse protected by the white sheath that is found to fail.

21. Slide the textile sheath to make the fuse and its set rings appear.
22. Cut the wire at the level of the two rings
23. Bare on a length corresponding to those of new rings
24. Set up the three elements and crimp firmly.
25. Check the electrical continuity
26. Replace the textile sheath.
