hmmm....that interlock is dependent on a temperature sensor, to ensure that no one opens that door when it's too hot inside. I'm assuming that it's still locked, even after the temperature has dropped off?
The temperature cut-out thermostat at the back of the oven has failed. You will need to pull the oven out and remove the back panel. Thermostat should be at the top in the middle. Once replaced oven will be back to normal.
I had the same problem with a Superba wall oven. In my case, the bracket mount for the door lock warped due to the heat of the self clean cycle. We were able to open the door by inserting a coat hanger into the slight opening at the top of the door and sliding the lock lever to the left. It was a pretty easy self-repair -
1) turn off breaker
2) slide oven out 2-3"
3) remove oven front trim pieces
4) remove screws that mount control panel
5) this should give you access to the door lock mechanism.
good luck
You're right about not using the self clean option. Your oven gets up to over 800 degrees when you use that feature. You can choose to simply keep your oven wiped out, rather than self clean it. The timer is most likely going out if the "stop" button doesn't work after cleaning. Please call or email us and we will be sure toget the right part for you. I hope this solves your problem. Ella
I have a similar problem with my electric Frigidaire convection oven, which flashes ERR F9 and beeps after finishing a cleaning cycle; if you haven't had to have it repaired professionally by now you might try cutting the circuit breaker to the oven for a few seconds and then turning it back on. My oven takes a few minutes to reset, after the circuit is turned back on, but then will unlock the door and let me reset the clock and continue cooking as normal. . . until the next time I set the clean cycle.
i had the same problem... the thermal circuit in the back had blown,,little rond thing the size of a quarter with two black wires plugged into it. had trouble getting the door open though,,good luck
