Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely before attempting to release the lock.

Steps to release and repair:

Manual release (if provided): Some OBH Nordica ovens have a manual door lock release accessible through a small opening near the lock. Consult the user manual and use a suitable tool to move the release lever.
Access from top/front: Remove the top panel or control panel to reach the door lock assembly. Carefully move the latch to the open position by hand.
Inspect mechanism: Check for bent parts, grease buildup, or foreign objects obstructing the latch. Clean and lubricate lightly with high-temperature-safe lubricant if needed.
Test lock motor and switches: With power off, test the lock motor for continuity and the microswitches for proper operation. Replace the OBH Nordica-compatible door lock assembly if components are faulty.
Test: After reassembly, restore power and run a short high-temperature cycle to confirm that the door locks and unlocks correctly.

Oven door will not open after a high-temperature or self-clean cycle, even when cool.
