Tecnogas Stuck Self-Clean Door Lock

Oven door will not open after a self-clean cycle, even though the oven is cool.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Jammed door lock mechanism, Failed lock motor, Misaligned latch, Control not receiving lock feedback

Safety first: Disconnect power before attempting to release the lock.

Steps:

Wait until the oven is completely cool; some locks will not release until a low temperature is reached.
Access the lock mechanism from the top or rear and gently move the latch to the unlocked position.
Inspect for bent parts or obstructions and correct as needed.
If the lock motor does not operate during a test self-clean, replace the lock assembly.
