Possible Causes
Door switch stuck in closed position, Failed light relay on EOC, Shorted light circuit wiring
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before testing switches or relays.
Steps to try:
- Test door switch: Press the door switch plunger by hand. If the light does not turn off, test the switch with a multimeter and replace if it does not open when released.
- Inspect wiring: Check for wires shorted together at the light socket or behind the control panel.
- Control relay: If the switch and wiring are good, the light relay on the EOC may be stuck closed. The EOC will need replacement.
