GE double oven initiates cleaning cycle during normal operation. Interrupts cooking cycle, locks door, then turns itself off. What is the most likely component causing this issue?:confused:

There might be a slim chance the control is sensing the oven is hot enough for a clean cycle and locking the door as a safety precaution. The only other thing I can think of is the control may be malfunctioning and initiating a clean cycle on its own. Quote:GE double oven initiates cleaning cycle during normal operation. Does the control actually indicate a cleaning cycle or are you just assuming it is in clean because the door locks? Dan O. www.Appliance411.com

The Appliance Information Site =D~~~~~~ Hi Dan, Thanks for the quick response, You are correct, the oven doesn't actually go into a full scale cleaning cycle, the door locks, then the unit resets and the door unlocks. This interrupts the cooking cycle, but the timer continues to count down. However the elements are off so the temp reduces. I've set the oven, allowed preheat, then input food. Returned to the unit a few minutes later finding the oven off. When re-starting I find the temp well below the preheat. Kinda aggravating not knowing how long the food was at the desired temperature. We enjoy our double oven and would hate to have to replace it. How can I correct this issue? Thanking you, John Powell
