Have a 2010 Kenmore self cleaning oven that has been used for self cleaning 3 times a year. Clean it 2 times this year and no smell. Did a self clean 1st week of September and had a smell. 2 days ago (Sept. 24) cooked brownies and had a metallic smell. Called for service and was told it was just from previous self cleaning. Never had a smell in the previous 3 years. Can you tell me what is wrong?
What kind of smell? Like burned food, rotten, electronic smell.... ???

Sounds like a thermal overload has opened up during clean. It may be mounted on the back.
SOURCE: How do I clean the inside of the door window of my self-cleaning oven?
umm. there will always be some assemblence of grease on the door glass, if its on the inner most panel and you can scrub it off, then i would reccomned using a razor blade lying flat to scrape it off, however if it has developed within the panel(s) of glass then the only remedy is to dissassmeble the door and glean them that way.. there was some conflict as to the age of your machine in your description, you say "3-hour cycle for the first use late last spring, if I remember correctly--whatever the directions said to do for the first time, a 4-hour cycle after Thanksgiving last fall and a 3-hour cycle for the second cleaning a couple of days ago since it wasn't very dirty"" so i cant be a mont old??? reason i say is that is the unit you purchased probably come with a pretty kickin warr and the manufacture will want ot make good on your issue if you cant resolve it, betterchance though if only 1 month not 11

Leaving the breaker off for the time I was at work (about 9 hours) seems to have cleared the problem. May have just been an abberation and not an actual problem with the appliance. Since the first step with most electronics that develop a fault of some type is to power down for a while then power back up to reset the electronics, I decided to see if that would do it and it did. Thanks for having a site to go to for assistance, though!!!! -Mike-
