LED Blinking: Cannot Start Self-Clean (Oven Still Hot)

Appliance: Thermador Dual Fuel Range Models: PRD304GHU, PRD364GDHU, PRD366GHU, PRD486GDHU, PRD364NLHU, PRD486NLHU, PRD484NCHU, PRD305PH, PRD364JDGU, PRD366JGU, PRD486JDGU

⚠ What This Means

When attempting to start a second self-clean cycle immediately after the first one ends, the LED starts blinking to indicate the oven has not completely cooled down. The oven cannot be used until the temperature drops below 500°F (260°C) and the door is unlocked.

🔧 How to Fix

  1. Turn both oven knobs to OFF.
  2. Wait for the oven temperature to drop below 500°F (260°C).
  3. The door will unlock automatically when the oven reaches a safe temperature.
  4. Once the oven has cooled and the door is unlocked, you may start a new self-clean cycle (subject to the 24-hour successive clean prevention on Pro Grand models).
