Customer Question

Oven door is locked...

Oven door is locked. Can't unlock it!

Contractor's Assistant: Have you tried resetting your oven by unplugging it for 60 seconds then plugging it back in? How old is it?

Contractor's Assistant: How long has this been going on with your oven? What have you tried so far?

I've tried hitting cancel on panel but nothing happens.

Contractor's Assistant: Anything else we should know to help you best?

When starting, I hit the bake button. I mistakenly hit the hold 3 sec button, and that's when the oven door locked.
