Hey Stevet: almost done restoring my KDP-20 but I have found a problem with the bimetal motor on the pre-wash door. It doesn't open. I have removed the doors cleaned the shafts and installed new o-rings. The wash door SNAPS open. I notice the pre-wash door is wired through the rinse aid dispenser and the wash door is not.
How do these bimetal things work, I tried removing it and applying power directly to the bimetal and it shorted the circuit breaker. signed- Confused in Boston. jon | ||

Series... Yes in series, Jon. So that the current flowing thru them will bend the bimetal to unlock the door. Doesnt last too long..maybe one timer increment. The cycle chart may tell more but it doesn't reflect how it is wired. The Door schematic will show the connections but won't say when it happens either. | ||

Adding a posting moves (bumps) the thread back up to the top of the pile so it is more easily seen. | ||
