GE JGBS10DEMWW 5.0 cu ft Free-Standing Gas Range FF Error Fix: Door Safety Switch Signal Loss

The Electronic Range Control has lost the safety signal from the door motor safety switch — the ERC can no longer confirm the door lock/unlock position during self-clean operation; this is typically an internal ERC failure where the monitoring circuit for the door switch has failed; the ERC must be replaced; in some cases, the door lock switch itself has failed — test the switch for continuity in both locked and unlocked positions before replacing the entire ERC; confirmed in GE seed data as a verified code
