You may be able to use basic baking and broiling functions, but the self-clean feature will not work and the door may not lock properly. It's recommended to fix the issue promptly for safety and full functionality.
How much does a Frigidaire oven door lock motor cost?
A replacement door lock motor assembly typically costs between $50-150 depending on your specific Frigidaire oven model. Professional installation may add $100-200 in labor costs.
