Sunray Oven light not turning off

Won’t your Sunray oven light turn off? The light switch is the most likely cause. A shorted light switch can continue sending power to the oven light even when the switch is in the off position. Test the switch for continuity with a multimeter and replace it if it shows continuity when off. If pressing the light button does not turn the light off, the touchpad and control panel may not be activating properly. Test the other control buttons. If some respond and others do not, replace the touchpad and control panel, or the touchpad if your model uses separate parts. A shorted control board can also keep the oven light on after the switch is ruled out. Next, check whether the oven door closes tightly. A bent door hinge can prevent the door switch from being actuated, while a shorted door switch can keep the light on. These repairs address common oven light not turning off and oven light stays on problems. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement part for your Sunray oven.
