• Should both indicators light up on the R Series Gas Range fan switch when in use?
• When the oven fan is switched to the on or cool position, should the two indicators be lit?
• At what serial number did the operation of the oven fan switch change?
• The oven fan or light switch indicator bulb burnt out, not illuminated, not working

Answer:

Oven Light Switch Operation

• Regardless of serial number, the oven light switch illuminates when the switch is in the On (up) position.
• The switch remains illuminated regardless of the oven door position. Opening the oven door has no effect on switch illumination.
• Switch does not illuminate in the Off (down) position.

• Prior to serial number 17211561:
  • Switch has two individual indicators that illuminate for the corresponding selection only, either On (up) or Cool (down).
  • Only one indicator illuminates at a time. Both indicators should not illuminate at the same time.
  • Switch does not illuminate in the Off (middle) position.
• Starting with serial number 17211561:
  • Both indicators illuminate regardless of selection, either On (up) or Cool (down).
  • When the oven door opens, the selected switch position remains illuminated, but the non-selected switch position is no longer illuminated.
  • Switch does not illuminate in the Off (middle) position.
