BAKE & BROIL SOLENOID-
ACTIVATED PORTS
The bake and broil gas supply ports are opened
and closed by electrically-operated solenoids.
When  voltage  is  received  from  the  spark
ignition control for the bake or broil function,
(8-18  VDC),  the  solenoid  for  that  function  is
activated,  and  the  valve  opens  to  allow  gas
flow to the burner. The electrical connections
at  the  valve  consist  of  three  terminals,  each
one sized differently to prevent incorrect wir-
ing (see below).
The solenoids require special voltage/current
(8 - 18 VDC) from the direct spark ignition con-
trol to operate properly. IMPORTANT: Do not
attempt to operate the solenoids with any
other voltage supply.
Electrical Terminals:
