140066880117 Genuine Pyro Oven Door Lock for Electrolux Group Pyrolytic Ovens, Self Clean Door Latch Lock

Self cleaning ovens need a reliable door lock, and 140066880117 is a genuine Electrolux one for its pyrolytic models. The lock keeps the door closed through the very high temperatures of a pyro cycle and reports its position back to the oven's controls. Because Electrolux has more than one pyro lock with a similar number, including 140066880042, confirm the exact number on your old lock or parts list before you order.

Faults that point to a failed pyro door lock

A pyrolytic oven won't heat into its cleaning cycle until the controls know the door is locked. Inside the lock, a latch hooks the door and a switch tells the controls when it's engaged. Wear, heat damage or a broken latch can stop it engaging, so the clean never begins or ends early with an error. A switch fault can leave the lock symbol flashing, or keep the door locked after the oven has cooled down. Grease and debris around the latch opening can cause similar problems, so clean that area first.

Fitting the door lock

Turn the oven off at the isolator and give it time to cool completely. Most pyro locks are reached by sliding the oven out and removing the top cover or front trim. Photograph the wiring and the latch position before disconnecting anything. As these ovens are usually hard-wired, a licensed electrician should fit the lock and test a pyro cycle afterwards.
