Possible Causes
Failed door lock motor, Stuck lock mechanism due to heat distortion, Faulty unlock switch, Control board not sending unlock signal
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and allow the oven to cool completely. Do not force the door open.
- Manual release: Consult the service manual for your Stoves model to locate the manual door lock release (often accessible from the top or rear). Use it to gently unlock the door.
- Inspect lock mechanism: Once open, access the lock assembly and check for heat damage, warping, or debris preventing movement. Clean and straighten as needed.
- Test motor and switches: Use a multimeter to verify motor continuity and proper operation of lock/unlock switches. Replace the lock assembly if defective.
- Control board check: If the lock assembly is good but the control does not send an unlock signal, replace the electronic oven control board.
