We had a power failure and our Gaggenau electric wall oven door will not open. We have tried taking off the child lock and flipping the breaker. It's an older oven like EB270

The question here is how long did you leave the breaker off? Gaggenau ovens have a memory and I always advise turn the oven off for 5 mins before turning the breaker back on. Give that a try. The first thing the oven does when the power is reapplied is go thru a test phase which included locking and unlocking the door. The key symbol will go on and off during this. Sometimes you have to also can run a self clean then cancel it to reset the lock. This works as well.

We did leave the breaker off for more than 5 minutes and did try the pyro clean mode letting it heat up and then canceling it. When the oven reached locking temperature it didn't self-lock nor did it unlock. The lock symbol is also not lit on the panel at any time... Thanks for the suggestions though!
