I would try pressing and holding the stop clear button on the key panel. however if you try pushing all the buttons and dont hear a beep coming from any of them i would try unplugging the range for a minuite or two and plugging it back in if that makes no difference then there is a problem with the control board and it would need to be replaced..

Kenmore elite oven door shows door locked how to unlock it

https://www.hunker.com/12438447/how-to-unlock-a-locked-oven-door-on-a-kenmore-range


How to Unlock Locked Oven Door on Kenmore Range Hunker

Quoting from the link shown:
Step 1 Read the display on the electronic oven controls, where the clock and timer normally appear. If the display reads "CLN" while the "Door Locked" light is on, the Kenmore range is in self-clean mode. When the Kenmore range is in self-clean mode, you must stop the cleaning process before the door will unlock.
Step 2 Stop the self-cleaning process by pressing and holding the "Stop/Clear" button for three seconds. The oven lock should disengage after three seconds. In some cases, a malfunction between the control panel and the locking mechanism prevents the door from unlocking.
Step 3 Hold the light switch for several seconds if the "Stop/Clear" button fails to unlock the range door. Engaging the light switch for several seconds resets the entire locking mechanism and overrides the "Stop/Clear" button.

I cannot unlock the cooktop on my Kenmore gas range. There is no lockout button, only Select Clean and Stop/Clear. Neither one of which unlocked the cooktop. There is a little padlock looking symbol t

I'm sorry, but the model number given in the question is either wrong or incomplete. Please check that model number. Usually, on Kenmore ranges, you can find the model # and serial # on either the left or right side of the storage or warmer drawer. Open the drawer and look on the frame of the range for a label. On a few ranges, the label is affixed to the frame between the oven door and the drawer.
As an alternative, please post a clear picture of the control panel.

I don't know the model # but its a kenmore oven and my daughter left her finger on the stop button too long and so the oven door automatically locked us out. I can't find the book for it

According to the eHow website,
"press and hold the stop/clear button for 3 seconds to unlock the door."
(it's the same to lock the door in the first place.)

According to the Just Answer website, either press and hold the stop/clear button for 3 seconds or 5 seconds, (A beep will sound. The "DOOR LOCKED" will continue to flash until the oven door has completely unlocked and the lock icon light has cleared.) or you have to press the button 3 times quickly.

Cooking top is locked. how do I unlock it

If the model number you listed this question under is correct, to lock/unlock the control panel, you need to press and hold the OVEN button for 5 seconds. If you do not have an owner's manual, you can obtain a replacement at managemylife.com. Just type in your model number under the "Manuals" link. Manuals are listed in .pdf (Adobe) format and can be downloaded or printed for FREE. If you need further assistance, please let me know. I hope this helps you.

Kenmore Oven Door Lock Stuck Out

We had this same problem. We found that pushing the censor button/switch on the upper left rim of the oven's inside moved the lock and made it capable to unlock, or purchase a pizza pizzaz.

LOCK BUTTON ON

I think on this model you hold the lock button down until the light blinks off, about 3-5 seconds. If it locks by itself when you open and close the door it may be within the serial number range that had a recall on the dispenser board. Most of these were upgraded about two years ago but I still run into a few that were missed occasionally. If it is one of these units, as far as I know the recall is still open and it would be repaired free of charge. The most likely thing is that some one held the lock button down without realizing it though.
