How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Isolate power before testing the switch.

  • Locate and test switch: Find the door switch on the front frame. Test all switch contacts with a multimeter in door-open and door-closed positions.
  • Correct wiring: Ensure wires are on the correct switch terminals (common, NO, NC) according to the wiring diagram.
  • Replace switch: If contacts are unreliable, install a new door switch.
  • PCB input: If the switch is good but the oven does not respond correctly, the control board input may be faulty and require replacement.
