How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely before attempting to unlock.
- Wait for cool-down: Some models keep the door locked until the oven is below a safe temperature. After full cool-down, restore power and see if the lock releases.
- Manual release: Access the manual lock release (if present) from the top or rear of the range and gently move it to unlock the door.
- Inspect lock assembly: With the rear panel removed, check the lock motor, linkage, and switches for binding or damage. Lubricate pivot points lightly with high-temperature-safe lubricant if dry.
- Replace lock assembly: If the motor does not respond to lock/unlock commands or the switch is defective, replace the entire door lock motor assembly.
