How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure the oven has cooled completely. Do not force the door open.
- Wait and power reset: Turn off power at the breaker for 5 minutes, then restore. Some models will attempt to reset the lock on power-up.
- Manual release: Consult the service manual for your Ikea model; many have a manual release lever accessible from the top or rear once the range is pulled out.
- Inspect lock assembly: Once the door is open and power is off, access the lock motor and linkage. Replace the door lock assembly if it is warped or the motor does not operate.
