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

Yes that is presumably what he meant by coming late to this?

I come late to this, but after encountering the same problem today it

doing
precisely this, but by a much more laborious and round about route. Hope
this
helps.


OMG 2003 this time. I'm wondering who Fred Phase is/was. The cooker is
long dead assuming the OP isn't!

It would be smarter if the website didn't allow you to reply to very old
posts!
