Received the board and installed today. See before and after pictures. Works very well. The #5 or #7 refer to the gas lens cup size. Sequence was top to bottom. Thank you for fixing the issue.

AC frequency board replacement.
It is a small, about 3"x5" board located on the left side toward the front, just above center. Point of reference is standing in front of the machine looking at the control panel.
Not that it is correct, my procedure:
1. Shut it off, let it sit for awhile - let capacitors discharge.
2. unplug
3. move the machine so you can get to the 6 screws that go up through the bottom of the front and rear covers.
4. remove the 4 screws (horizontal) that go through the front black plastic cover.
5. repeat for the rear cap.
6. remove the 3 screw (vertical) that go through the bottom of the front black plastic cap.
7. repeat for the rear.
8. remove the rear cap and handle.
9. gently pull the front cap and control panel forward just enough to clear the metal case.
10. remove the 10 screws that hold the metal case to the frame, 5 per side, 3 along the bottom, 2 just above center.
11. gently left the case off the machine. Bend out a little so the vents will clear components.
12. remove the 4 screws holding the circuit board to be replaced - left side toward the front, just above center. Point of reference is you looking at the control panel.
13. pull the bottom of the board away from the machine. You will now have working room to swap the 6 plugs.
14. swap the plugs, one at a time, board to board. Note: there are 6 plugs to swap. There are 7 connectors on the board. Some connectors can be plug into more than one location.
15. reverse the above.
16. Be careful not to pinch wires on the left side.
16. Don't forget to the handle back in before securing the back cap - not that I forgot.

Not hard, just use a good #1 Phillips and take you time.

If I remember right, front panel removal is not necessary.
