The overload protector is held in place with
a round spring clip. Using a screwdriver, pry open the spring
clip and remove the overload protector.
Test the overload protector for
continuity
using a multitester.
Set the multitester to the ohms setting X1.
Place a probe on each terminal.
The multitester should display a reading of zero ohms. If the
overload protector does not pass this test, it should be replaced.
