Kenmore gas range trouble

I used my self cleaning option today for the first time on model #7903668*. All was fine until about halfway through it stopped and started beeping. The message on the digital screen is now reading F90. I have to keep the door open now because it still continues to beep even after I press the stop button. I would really appreciate some help here. The instruction manuel says nothing worth while. THANKYOU!!!!!

    Second attempt at self cleaning and 20 minutes in, heard a series of beeps. Out of concern attempted to call repair center for explanation, was told no techs available additionally given Kenmore number to call and no one available until December 26. Have decided to research it on my own on the internet to which point I found this page where a similar issue compels me to submit a similar report. The oven appears to be continuing self clean mode without error, however am concerned there is no explanation for what appears to be warning signals (series of beeps).

F90 Maximum oven door unlock time exceeded.
F91 Maximum oven door unlock attempts exceeded.
F92 Maximum oven door open time exceeded.
F93 Maximum oven door lock time exceeded.
F94 Maximum oven door lock attempts exceeded.


1. (F90, 91, 92, 93 & 94) Check the wiring between EOC & Lock Motor Micro Switch.

2. (F90, 91, 92, 93 & 94) Replace the Motor Door Latch assembly if necessary.

3. (F90, 91, 92, 93 & 94) Check for binding of the Latch Cam, Lock Motor Rod & Lock Motor Cam.

4. (F90, 91, 92, 93 & 94) Check to see if Lock Motor Coil is open. If open, replace Lock Motor Assembly.

5. (F90, 91, 92, 93 & 94) Lock Motor continuously runs - if Micro Switch is open, replace Lock Motor Assembly.

6. (F92, 93 & 94) Check oven door Light Switch - if open, replace Switch.

7. If all situations above do not solve problem, replace EOC.


F90 is a door lock code, Try this...
unplug the range.
wait 1 minute.
turn the range back on,
then while holding in on the oven door.
start another self clean.
wait 2 minutes.
then cancel the self clean.

do not release the door until the door lock light goes out.

Not sure what to do after using self cleaning gas stove

The self cleaning is used to loosen grease only, when it has ran its cycle you must take a damp coth and wipe away the excess. As for the window it is best to use something like vinegar , just dampen a cloth and clean the window. Rember, Damp only no excess water

Kenmore Oven Problem I have a Kenmore 79012 Range. The burners and broiler work fine. The ignitor comes on in the oven, but it will not light. After a few minutes I can smell gas, but the ignitor is still...

the ignitor has to be on before the gas valve opens up and until the stove recognizes a flame, if it doesnt the gas will shut off and the ignitor will cool off, If you use the self clean setting to clean the oven you will destroy the ignitor much faster because they are only rated for about 1000 degreese for just a minute and self clean keeps it around 800 for an hour or so. You may just need to replace the ignitor.

How do you use the self cleaning option for Kenmore dual fuel ove

Simply press the "Clean" button and set a time (Hi or 4hrs is best) it will the lock the door and burn everything inside. If you have silver colored shelfs remove them fist. After its done and has cooled wipe out the ash that has collected in the bottom of the oven.
