How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker before accessing internal components.

  • Check door alignment:
    • Verify the oven door closes fully and the latch engages smoothly.
    • Adjust door hinges if the door is sagging or misaligned.
  • Inspect lock assembly:
    • Access the door lock motor assembly from the rear or top.
    • Look for broken plastic parts, bent linkage, or obstructions.
  • Test lock motor:
    • Apply 120 VAC (only if you are qualified) or use a multimeter to verify the motor coil is not open.
    • If the motor does not run when commanded or coil is open, replace the door lock motor assembly.
  • Check lock switch:
    • Use a multimeter to verify the lock switch changes from open to closed when the lock is engaged.
    • Replace the lock assembly if the switch is defective.
