Possible Causes

Faulty door switch stuck closed, Jammed door latch not actuating switch, Stuck lamp relay on control board, Shorted wiring to lamp circuit

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect mains power before working on the door or control panel.

  • 1. Check door switch operation: Locate the door switch (usually near the door frame). Press it manually; you should hear a click. If it feels loose or does not click, replace it.
  • 2. Test switch electrically: Remove the switch and test continuity with a multimeter. It should change state when pressed. Replace if faulty.
  • 3. Inspect latch alignment: Ensure the door latch properly engages the switch actuator. Adjust latch or hinges if needed.
  • 4. Control board relay: If the switch is good, the lamp relay on the PCB may be welded closed. Inspect and replace the control board if required.
