Default Oven door hinges locked in transit position. Won't unlock.

I come late to this, but after encountering the same problem today it
seems
that on some models there MAY be another far easier way. On reinserting
the door one instinctively wants to close it; but to get at the hinge
locks you should actually OPEN it completely (that is, at right angles).
On my model it is then very simple to get at the locks. Sounds to me as
if you might be doing precisely this, but by a much more laborious and
round about route. Hope this helps.


OMG 2003 this time.


Still useful info regardless of when the original was asked.

I'm wondering who Fred Phase is/was. The cooker is long dead assuming the
OP isn't!


Irrelevant to whether the info is still useful to others.
