My oven locked and I cannot get it to unlock. I had broiled something, took out the chicken, and it locked when i shut the door. I got the oven open but now I cannot get it closed because the door is still locked. What do I do?
Press and hold the "clean" button for 5 seconds.
The oven locks when you either deliberately or accidentally hit the self-clean button. It is protecting you from the smoke and extremely high temperature needed to burn off the food drippings turning it to ash. You can turn off the breaker switch for the oven, when you turn it back on, see if the door opens again. If not, wait until the oven cools as it may have a temp control feature to prevents burns and therefore not allow the door to be unlocked until it is cool again.
If you are referring to the bake element, but the broil element works then you would need to just replace the bake element. If both your bake and broil element does not work, then there might be a problem with the wiring communication. However, if the oven does not bake and/or broil but the cook top works, contact a professional to have the EOC (electronic oven control) diagnosed.

tried to self-clean and door locked now stuck what to do?
I need to know how to operating directions for a convection oven.
Having the same issue -- self cleaning latch won't release/re-set. Please provide solutions.
I just set the oven to self clean, I quickly opened the door to make sure nothing was inside and the locking mechanism locked in place and I can't close the door. The panel shows locked. Is there something to reset? I tried pushing the cancel several times but to no avail. Tom

Oven door locked and would not release when self clean activated?
Well I have the opposite problem. I press the clean mode, and it won't lock at all...I can't figure out what i'm doing wrong... It lets me set the time...and then says "door" but then doesn't lock and then just turns off the clean mode...
