Model BKT Installation
Note: When installing the BKT thermostatically-controlled blower,
you must rst secure the thermal switch bracket to the blower if it
has not already been factory installed.
1. Place the green ground wire with ring terminal between the
bottom hole on the thermal switch bracket and the top ear hole
on the blower assembly. Insert the Phillips screw into all three
pieces and tighten securely (see Figure 28).
2. Connect wire harness and power cord terminals. Connect the
blue jumper wire to the blower motor terminal and the right
side terminal of the thermal switch. Connect the black wire to
the left side of the thermal switch and the white wire to the
other remaining blower motor terminal.
Note: The power cord outer insulation sleeve may have to be
stripped slightly to allow enough wire length to reach and make
all connections. DO NOT trim excessive length away. Just enable
enough to make all connections securely.
3. Place the blower against the lower rear wall of the rebox outer
wrapper with the exhaust port directed upward and the thermo-
disc positioned up near the replace bottom. The thermodisc
must be oriented near the replace bottom as shown in Figure 28
in order to sense temperature and properly operate. The blower
will be held in position against the back wall by the magnets
incorporated onto the blower housing (see Figure 28).
