Possible Causes
Door not fully closed or lock not engaging, Oven too hot or too cold to start clean, Faulty door lock switch
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the oven is empty and racks are removed before attempting self-clean.
Steps:
- Door closure: Confirm the door closes firmly and the latch engages. Adjust hinges or latch if the door is loose.
- Cool-down: If the oven was recently used, allow it to cool to room temperature before starting self-clean.
- Lock switch: If the lock motor runs but the cycle will not start, the lock position switch may not be signaling locked. Access the lock assembly from the rear and test the switch with a multimeter. Replace the lock assembly if defective.
