Oven displays F9 and may not complete self-clean; door may remain locked or unlocked incorrectly.

Safety first: Disconnect power. If the door is locked with racks inside, do not force it open; damage to the door or frame can occur.

• Access lock assembly: On many Stoves ovens, the door lock motor is accessible from the top or rear after removing the cooktop or rear panel. Refer to your model's layout.
• Inspect linkage: Check the lock rod and latch for bends, obstructions, or misalignment. Clear any debris and ensure the mechanism moves freely by hand (with power off).
• Test lock motor and switches: Use a multimeter to check the lock motor coil for continuity and the lock position switches for proper open/closed states when actuated. Replace the lock motor assembly if defective.
• Check wiring: Inspect the harness from the lock assembly to the control board for breaks or burns. Repair as needed.
• Manual unlock (if needed): Some models have a manual release accessible from the top or through the vent slots. Use only as described in the service manual to avoid damage.
