All of the sudden the interior oven light won't shut off, even with the door closed or by pressing the light switch. The oven works great otherwise. Any help appreciated.

Having the same problem with our Whirlpool (RBD306PDZ8) on the lower oven. The door does not close all of the way allowing the light to stay on. My wife has taped velcro to the side of the oven to keep the door shut so the light turns off. This can probably happen with the top oven too as they appear to use the same hinge assembly. I'm going to order new hinges and install them to see if this fixes the issue.

Hope this helps you.

My Kitchenaid oven light stayed on and oven light button would not turn it of. Instead panel beeps 3 times.

The solution was quite simple and required no dis-assembly (Although I found solution after dis-assembly.)

Problem is that Self cleaning oven lock is partially engaged.

To reset and fix:
1. Pull out on latching mechanism/hook under control panel.
2. Move to your right until interior light turns off. (simulates door closed)
3. Press Self clean button and let lock fully engage.
4. Press cancel to stop Self clean.
5. Close door

Hope this helps someone.
