Norge Oven not self-cleaning

When your Norge 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 lock motor hum. If neither happens, a faulty touchpad is the most likely cause. Next, check the door lock motor and switch assembly. A defective assembly may prevent the self-clean cycle from starting or keep the oven door locked after cleaning. The temperature control thermostat can also fail during self-cleaning even when it works for baking and broiling. A damaged door latch or faulty latch microswitch may prevent the door from locking, which stops the cycle for safety. If these parts check out, the Norge oven control board or main control board may not be sending voltage to the heating circuits. For self cleaning oven troubleshooting, inspect the latch and wiring, and follow your owner's manual before removing panels or releasing a locked door. Enter your Norge range, stove, or oven model number to find the exact replacement touchpad, door lock assembly, thermostat, latch, or control board for your appliance.

01 - Norge 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 - Norge 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 - Norge 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 - Norge 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 - Norge 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 - Norge 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.
