How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power at the breaker before adjusting mechanical parts.
- Check for obstructions: Inspect the door latch area for debris or bent metal preventing full engagement.
- Test lock motor: With access to the lock assembly, apply power (if qualified) or run a self-clean command and observe whether the motor attempts to move. Replace the lock assembly if it does not move or stalls.
- Adjust latch: Slightly adjust the door latch striker on the oven frame if the door is not aligning properly with the lock.
- Replace lock switches: If the motor moves but the EOC does not detect the locked position, replace the lock assembly or switches.
