Great responses, thank you so much, I will get to checking these things asap. BUT, one really basic and dumb question. . . Should these checks be done with the set plugged in but off? or should all voltage checks be done with the set ON? I'm guessing that it will need to be on for voltage to be present in most of these locations, I just want to be 100% sure before I roast something. . . . dont judge. . .
