Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Isolate the oven from mains power before accessing the door switch.
Steps:
- Locate the door switch on the oven frame; press it manually to see if the light goes off (with power restored briefly for test).
- If the light does not respond, disconnect power and remove the switch from the frame.
- Test the switch with a multimeter; replace if it shows continuity when released.
- Check that the door closes fully and correctly engages the switch plunger.
- Inspect wiring for shorts that could bypass the switch.
Warning: Do not bypass the door switch; it may also control other safety functions.
