Possible Causes
Failed door latch motor, Jammed latch mechanism, Faulty latch position switch, Wiring issue between latch assembly and control
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker before accessing the latch assembly.
- Listen for latch movement: When starting self-clean (with power on), listen for the latch motor. If it hums but does not move, the mechanism may be jammed.
- Inspect latch assembly:
- Remove the top or rear panel to access the latch motor and linkage.
- Check for bent linkage, grease buildup, or foreign objects.
- Manually move the latch to verify it is free.
- Test motor and switches:
- With power off, disconnect the latch motor and measure coil resistance; replace if open.
- Test latch position switches for proper continuity when latch is open/closed.
- Replace assembly if needed: If the motor or switches are defective, replace the complete door latch assembly for best reliability.
