Can anyone help? My magic chef oven is stuck in self-clean mode and the door won’t open. What should I do?

booksmart asked:

The oven does not seem to be cleaning itself. I’ve heard that there could be something wrong with the clock that would make this happen, so any info about resetting the (old, analog) clock on this oven would be helpful too.
I finally got the oven door open by setting the oven to actually clean - it hadn’t been before. After the 3 hour cleaning cycle, the oven door opened. Unbelievable. Thanks for the ideas everyone.

  1. If I were you, I’d shell out the dough to have a repairman come and fix it. It’s not like you never use it.

  2. u need to flip ur breaker that controls the kitchen and leave it off for at least a minute so the oven has a chance to reset it self

    Since this is 12 hours old, you probably have got it to open by now. They usually have a cool-down period. Once the temperaure drops to a certain degree, it will let you open it.
