Hi
Thanks for using FixYa. The locking of the oven is a
safety measure while self clean function is activated. Once the oven has
completed the cycle & has cooled down, then it will reset the door
lock.
If a self clean oven door lock fails to open after the self
clean cycle and sufficient cooling time has elapsed (approximately 1 hour),
there are several things you can try.
- Unplug
the unit or shut off the circuit breaker for 5 minutes. Plug the unit back
in or turn on the circuit breaker. Set the clock and gently try moving the
door lock lever (is so equipped) or opening the door.
- Set
the self-clean cycle again and only allow it to work for 15 minutes.
Cancel the self-clean cycle and allow the oven to cool. Gently try moving
the door lock lever (is so equipped) or opening the door.
If these procedures fail to correct the condition or you
were not using the self clean cycle, then, the lock must usually be accessed
and moved manually to open the door—
In order to open the door you have to open the control panel
and remove the door lock.
Remove the three screws from the bottom of the control panel. You'll heed a
1/4" open wrench. Pull the bottom of the control panel toward yourself and
push it up to release from the upper tabs.
The door lock is secured by the three screws.
Please do accept the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance.
Thanks
