How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Disconnect power before attempting to manually release or adjust the lock.
- Wait for cooling: If F9 appears during self-clean, allow the oven to cool completely; the lock may release automatically.
- Manual release: Consult the Etna manual for the manual door lock release procedure (often accessible from the top or rear).
- Inspect lock assembly: Remove the top panel to access the lock. Check for bent linkages, broken plastic parts, or obstructions.
- Test switches: Use a multimeter to verify the lock position switches change state when the lock moves.
- Replace lock assembly: If the motor is weak or the mechanism is damaged, replace the complete door lock assembly.
