How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and allow the oven to cool completely before working on it.
- After cooling, reset:
- Restore power and press Cancel.
- Attempt to start and then cancel a clean cycle to see if the lock cycles.
- Inspect lock assembly:
- Access the door lock mechanism from the top or rear.
- Look for heat damage, melted plastic, or discolored wiring.
- Test lock components:
- Check motor resistance and switch continuity as the latch is moved.
- Replace any failed components.
- Control board check:
- If the lock assembly is good, the EOC may be misreading lock status.
- Inspect the control board for burnt traces or components.
- Replace as needed:
- Replace the door lock motor assembly if damaged.
- If necessary, replace the electronic oven control (EOC).
