Could a failing Door Latch Motor Assembly cause the LG RANGE LREL6325 OVEN to have symptom: Door Locked?

This assembly uses a small motor and microswitches to physically move the locking hook. If the motor windings fail or the internal plastic gears strip, the latch remains in the 'engaged' position even after the cooling period. Replacing this assembly restores the physical ability of the range to retract the locking hook.

Could a failing Oven Temperature Sensor (RTD) cause the LG RANGE LREL6325 OVEN to have symptom: Door Locked?

The control board will not signal the door latch to unlock if it perceives the internal oven temperature is above a safety threshold (typically 500°F). If the sensor is skewed or has high resistance, it provides a false high-temperature reading to the board, causing it to maintain the locked state indefinitely for safety.

Could a failing Main Power Control Board cause the LG RANGE LREL6325 OVEN to have symptom: Door Locked?

The main PCB contains the relays that switch voltage to the door lock motor. If the relay for the unlock command fails or the logic circuit that processes the latch microswitch state is damaged, the board will fail to cycle the motor to the open position.

What is the most likely root cause for a LG RANGE LREL6325 OVEN with symptom: Door Locked?

This assembly uses a small motor and microswitches to physically move the locking hook. If the motor windings fail or the internal plastic gears strip, the latch remains in the 'engaged' position even after the cooling period. Replacing this assembly restores the physical ability of the range to retract the locking hook.

System Nominal

The 'Door Locked' state is a standard safety feature during Self-Clean cycles and when the 'Control Lock' is activated. Press and hold the 'Control Lock' button for 3 seconds to see if the 'LOC' display clears and the door releases.

NO REPAIR ACTION REQUIRED. PHYSICS CHECK CONFIRMED.
