Possible Causes

Door lock motor jammed, Lock position switch not changing state, Bent lock rod, Control board not sending unlock signal

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power. The oven and door may still be hot; allow to cool before attempting mechanical work.

  • Manual release (if accessible): On some Glem Gas models, a manual release lever is accessible through the top or rear panel. Consult the user or service manual and gently move the lever to unlock the door.
  • Inspect lock assembly: Remove the top rear panel and observe the lock motor and linkage while manually moving it. Look for obstructions or bent parts.
  • Check switches: Test the lock and unlock position switches with a multimeter for proper operation.
  • Motor test: Measure the resistance of the lock motor and check for open circuit. Replace if faulty.
  • Control output: If the lock assembly is good, the control board may not be driving the motor correctly and may need replacement.
