Whirlpool GBS307PR Oven. Removed the thermostat, tested it, confirmed it was bad, ordered a new one and closed the oven door. The door locked and will not unlock. How do I unlock the door?

SOURCE: whirlpool electric oven

does your unit have a button to open door or do you just pull it to open it they are sometimes really stiff at first if it is button then it will need lock replacing about 60 pound if it just pulls open then these can seem stuck but will open as there is no mechanism to open the door so it will open but might take a bit of force the first few times untill it wares in a bit so dont be afraid of using force as it will open post back if you have any trouble and i will find a manuall and see what it says in their ok hope this is some help.........................................

HI. This will indicate that the door lock mechanism is damaged. follow the procedure below to address further.


If the door is latched:

A. Disconnect power from unit.
B. Check wires and connectors from control to door switch, then from door switch to control. If there is no damage to the wires and all connectors are okay, proceed to step C.
C. Replace door switch.
D. Re-apply power.
E. Press and hold any key down for 1 minute to clear F5 failure code from memory. F2 will appear. Press CANCEL and observe for 1 minute to ensure operation is correct.


NOTE_ This will, normally, lead to the replacement of the door latch assembly.
