Electrolux Oven not self-cleaning
When your Electrolux oven self clean is not working, start with the touchpad. When you press the self-clean button, the door lock indicator should light and you should hear the door lock motor run. If neither happens, a faulty touchpad is the most likely cause. If the cycle starts but the oven door will not unlock afterward, test the door lock motor and switch assembly. A defective temperature control thermostat can also prevent the self-clean cycle from heating correctly, even when the oven bakes and broils normally. Next, inspect the door latch and its microswitch. The self-clean cycle will not begin unless the latch securely locks the door and provides electrical continuity. Finally, a failed oven control board may not send voltage to the bake and broil circuits. These are the main causes of Electrolux oven self-clean problems and provide a practical starting point for self cleaning oven troubleshooting. Disconnect power before testing or replacing parts, and check your owner's manual before manually releasing a locked door. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement touchpad, lock assembly, thermostat, latch, or control board for your Electrolux oven.
01 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Touchpad
The door lock indicator light should come on and you should hear the lock motor running when the self-clean button is pressed. If the indicator light does not come on and you don't hear a low humming noise as the door is being locked, it's likely the oven's touchpad is faulty and will need to be replaced.

02 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Door Lock Motor and Switch Assembly
During the oven's self-cleaning cycle, the door lock switch activates the door lock motor to prevent the oven door from being opened. If the door lock motor and switch assembly is defective, the oven door will not unlock once the self-cleaning cycle is complete. On most ovens, you can open the oven door by removing certain screws or panels. Check your owner's manual for further instructions.

03 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Temperature Control Thermostat
The oven thermostat sends voltage to the heating circuit and regulates the temperature of the oven during the self-cleaning cycle. It is possible for the oven thermostat to function properly for baking and broiling but not for cleaning. Due to its complexity, the oven thermostat is difficult to test. If you suspect the oven thermostat is at fault, replace it.
Highly Likely
04 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Door Latch
For your safety, the self-clean cycle will not begin unless the oven door is locked. If the door latch is broken and unable to allow the door to be locked, the self-clean cycle will not begin. Inspect the latch for damage. You can also use a multimeter to test the latch assembly's microswitch, if applicable, to determine if the switch has appropriate electrical continuity. If the latch is damaged or the microswitch tests negative for continuity, the door latch should be replaced.
Highly Likely
05 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Oven Control Board
The oven control board has relays that send voltage to the bake and broil circuits according to the user settings and sensor input. If the control board is defective, it may not send voltage to the heating components.
Highly Likely
06 - Electrolux Range/Stove/Oven Control Board
The control board has relays that send voltage to the bake and broil circuits according to the user settings and sensor input. If the control board is defective, it may not send voltage to the heating components.
