How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the oven has fully cooled. Turn off power at the breaker before attempting to release the lock manually.

  • 1. Allow full cool‑down: Wait at least 60–90 minutes after self‑clean ends. The lock will not release until the cavity temperature is safe.
  • 2. Power reset: Turn the breaker off for 5 minutes, then back on. Sometimes the control will reinitialize and release the lock.
  • 3. Manual release: With power off, remove the top panel to access the lock assembly. Many Fulgor Milano locks have a manual release lever or tab. Gently move it to unlock the door.
  • 4. Inspect lock switches: Check the micro‑switches on the lock assembly for proper actuation when the lock moves. Replace the lock assembly if switches are defective or the mechanism is heat‑damaged.
  • 5. Control board check: If the lock works mechanically but the control still shows a lock error, the lock feedback circuit on the control board may be faulty and require replacement.
