REMOTE CONTROL BOX ASSEMBLY
6-1.
General
The remote control box assembly (figs. 2-2 and
6-1) consists of a 5-gang, 4-posrtion selector
switch (air conditioning switch) and a 5000-
ohm variable resistor (temperature control),
as described in paragraph 2-8 a.
6-2.
Removal
a.
Set master circuit breaker to OFF posi-
tion.
b.
Remove remote control wiring harness
plugs P102 and P103 from electrical tray re-
mote control receptacle J102 and remote con-
trol box assembly receptacle J103, respectively.
c.
Remove remote control box assembly
from mounting site (para 338 a).
6-3. Testing
Using a multimeter set to read 10,000-ohms
resistance, test the remote control box as fol-
lows:
a.
Temperature Control Variable Resistor.
When testing the temperature Control Variable
Resistor perform the following:
(1)
Turn temperature control knob to
COOL position.
(2)
Connect multimeter test leads to re-
mote control box receptacle J103 terminals B
and H.
(3)
Slowly turn temperature control
knob to warm position; observe that multim-
eter indicating pointer moves smoothly from
0 to 5000-ohms reading.
(4)
If resistance range is not 0 thru
5000-ohms, or if pointer moves erratically
through range, the temperature control varia-
ble resistor (R3) is defective and must be
replaced.
6-1
b.
Air Conditioning Switch. When testing
the air conditioning switch perform the
following:
(1)
Turn temperature control knob to
COOL position.
(2)
With multimeter test leads con-
nected to remote control box assembly recep-
tacle J103 terminal sets listed in table 6-1.,
check air conditioning switch in WARM, OFF,
VENT, and COOL positions for conditions
listed in tablt 6-1.

(3)
If any one of the terminal sets tested
in the four switch positions does not give a
multimeter reading as indicated in table 6-1,
the air conditioning switch (S2) is defective
and must be replaced.

Remote Control Box Assembly Repair
a.
Disassembly. Disassemble remote control
box assembly in the numerical sequence as
illustrated in figure 6-1. Remove hardware
only as required to replace defective part.
