When to Call a Professional
Contact a GE service technician if the control lock cannot be disabled after trying all methods, if the control panel is unresponsive, or if other error codes appear alongside the Loc code. This may indicate a faulty control board.Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my GE Profile oven show Loc error code?
The Loc error code appears when the control lock safety feature is activated. This prevents accidental operation of the oven and is commonly activated by pressing and holding the lock button for 3 seconds.
How do I turn off control lock on GE Profile oven?
Hold the Control Lock button for 3 seconds until you hear a beep and the Loc display disappears. If no dedicated button exists, try holding Clear/Off and Cook Time buttons together for 3 seconds.
Can I use my oven when Loc error is showing?
No, when the Loc error is displayed, all oven controls are locked and non-functional. You must disable the control lock first before you can operate the oven.
Does unplugging GE Profile oven reset control lock?
Yes, turning off power at the circuit breaker for 60 seconds will reset the control panel and disable the control lock. However, try the button method first as it's quicker and easier.
Why won't my GE Profile oven control lock turn off?
If the control lock won't disable, the control panel may be malfunctioning. Try a power reset first. If that doesn't work, you may need professional service to replace the control board.
