I Had a OL reading on a Cavity thermostat. Tech sheet said it was a single pole thermostat and that the contacts close at 158 degrees Fahrenheit. Now i thought this was a normally open thermostat then? totally confused me? Can you ellaborate with this. is that when they close after being heated up, or is this normally open? this is ona microwave btw which i thought would break the circuit.

Hi. Yes, it looks like you are talking about the hood TCO. This is a normally open t-stat. When temperature reaches 158 degrees, the t-stat will close which will then complete the circuit for the vent fan motor. I have attached the service manual for you. page 5 has the wiring diagram I was referring to.
