7 - 6 Genie GS-2046 & Genie GS-2646 & Genie GS-3246 Part No. 48339Service Manual - First EditionSection 7 - Repair ProceduresPLATFORM CONTROLSRight1-4Toggle SwitchesToggle switches used for single function switchingare single pole double throw (SPDT) switches.Dual function switching requires a double poledouble throw (DPDT) switch.How to Test a Toggle SwitchContinuity is the equivalent of 0 to3 ohms. A simple continuity testermay not accurately test the switch.This procedure covers fundamental switch testingand does not specifically apply to all varieties oftoggle switches.1 Turn the key switch to the OFF position. Tagand disconnect all wiring from the toggle switchto be tested.The toggle switch at the platformcontrols requires that the wiresare unplugged from the maincircuit board before testing.2 Connect the leads of an ohmmeter to theswitch terminals in the following combinationslisted below to check for continuity.Single poledouble throw(SPDT)Double poledouble throw(DPDT)CenterLeft1234 5 61 2 3123 1231 2 3 1 2 31 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 34 5 6 4 5 6Right positionterminal 1 to 2 continuity(zero Ω)terminal 1 to 3, 4, 5 & 6 no continuity(infinite Ω)terminal 2 to 3, 4, 5 & 6 no continuityterminal 3 to 4, 5 & 6 no continuityterminal 4 to 5 continuityterminal 4 to 6 no continuityterminal 5 to 6 no continuityTest Desired resultLeft positionterminal 1 to 2, 3, 4, 5 & 6 no continuity(infinite Ω)terminal 2 to 3 continuity(zero Ω)terminal 2 to 4, 5 & 6 no continuityterminal 3 to 4, 5 & 6 no continuityterminal 4 to 5 & 6 no continuityterminal 5 to 6 continuityCenter position There are no terminalcombinations that willproduce continuity(infinite Ω)
