2.5.2.3 Pod Assembly Checks
The pod assembly resistance checks are done with the power off and the
power cord disconnected.
1. Refer to Figure 8-7.
2. Connect the meter across the pins designated A and B on the mains
connector.
3. Short across pins 1 and 4 on connector F2.
4. With the power switch ON, the resistance should be less than 5 ohms.

5. Connect meter between pin 1 (GND) and pin 4 (CONT) on connector H3
(see Figure 8-7).
6. When the contrast control is moved from maximum to minimum, the
resistance range should be at least 8 kilohms.
7. Connect meter between pin 1 (GND) and pin 3 (BRIGHT +) on connector
H3.
8. When the brightness control is moved from maximum to minimum, the
resistance range should be at least 4 kilohms.
9. Replace the pod assembly if any of these checks are not correct.
