Look for a microswitch connected to the lock mechanism at the back of the stove. The switch is probably broken.

Hello ,
Welcome to fixya.
I'm Huuum and happy to assist you,

You asked, is there anyway to bypass the oven lock or bypass the self cleaning mode to get oven working?

Why do you need to do this?

If the door lock is stuck in closed position and preventing you from using the range?
You may free this by following this procedure.

Threat it like an error code.

This can reset the system.
Turn the breaker off to cut the power for 5 minutes.
Then restart the breaker and try the range.

It's like rebooting your computer when its acting strange!
Usually it corrects most problems!.
Or they are sometimes just a glitch.

If this does not remedy the problem, then the lock switch itself is bad and if you think you can bypass it then you may as well change it. Same labor!!.
Let me know how it works out.

Huuum

SOURCE: GE Profile Oven Door Lock Broken...

It sounds like your door latch motor, and/or interconnecting wiring may be bad. You will need to carefully lift the top panel and/or rear panel and locate the latch motor and linkage. If you go to searspartsdirect.com and look under the "Body Parts" heading, there is an excellent exploded view diagram. The latch is listed as item #279. Your exact model number was not listed, but if you use JGBP86WEA1WW or JGBP86WEA3WW, these will suffice. With the top of the range lifted, inspect the latch for any broken wires and attempt to operate the control panel to see if the latch works. If not, replace it. The part number is WB2K10010. This same part can be found at appliancepartspros.com for about half the price. Let me kow if you require addtional assistance. I hope this helps you.

I have a GE Profile self cleaning oven. JSP46 model. When I broil for around 15-20 mins, the panel flashes door locked and the oven shuts off. I always broil with the door open.

Hello,
You should replace the door lock mechanism and the door switch.

Ge profile oven lock button won't go off

  • 1.Press the "Clear/Off" button on the control panel to reset the oven. This will clear the lock setting and unlock the door.

    2.Allow the oven to cool to room temperature to avoid turning the lock on again during this heating cycle.

    3.Reset the oven to the temperature you require to finish cooking by pressing the correct temperature control on the control pad.

    or

  • 1.If your GE Profile microwave won't turn on, unplug it, then plug it back in. A power outage may have occurred due to a power surge. Check your home's fuses and circuit breakers.

    2.Set the clock of your GE Profile microwave. Certain models will not operate until you set the clock. Select the "Clock" key and type in the correct time.

  • 3.Hold down your microwave's "Off" button. You may have accidentally hit the control-lock feature on your GE Profile microwave. Hold down the "Off" button for three seconds to turn the lock off.

  • 4.If the sensors of your GE Profile microwave are not working correctly, remove the food from the machine. If the sensors detect food-surface temperatures over 200 degrees Fahrenheit, it will not work properly until the area cools down.

  • 5.Contact GE Support if you are unable to resolve the issue on your own. Call the GE Support hotline or browse the help library on the GE website. You can also schedule a service visit on GE's website.

    How do we unlock the oven door! Accidentally pushed a button in front. We have no manual or SS#. Oven was in house when we bought it. We unplugged it to turn off and was able to open the door. Please...

    IF you can locate the model number tag (bottom left of door opening) you can look up the manual at www.geappliances.com
    The only button on your stove that should make the door lock would be the clean button (self clean model) if that is pressed simply hit the clear/off or cancel key and wait for the door to unlock. IF the self clean option ran for an hour or so, you will have to wait for the oven to cool down before the lock can un-lock (safety feature).
    Good luck with this!!

    How do I find the part number for replacing control board for GE?

    WB27T10290
    I would not be so sure about that the problem is in the control board. Check switches on the door lock assemblies first.

    DCS gas oven locked

    I let the door stay open, hold the switch closed with my finger, activated self clean. Let it run for a minute then hit cancel, the stove heating element shut off and the locked door blinked for 5 seconds then finally stopped. Back to normal.
