Understanding the F44 fault<\/span><\/h2>\n

The F44 code is triggered when the electronic control board cannot get the lower oven door latch to unlock.<\/span><\/p>\n

Inside your Bosch double wall oven, there are two separate oven cavities – the upper and lower ovens. Each oven cavity has its latch mechanism controlled by the central electronic control system.<\/span><\/p>\n

The latch mechanism uses an electric motor and switch assembly to lock and unlock the oven door. When you start a self-cleaning cycle, the latch motor rotates to lock the door so it cannot be opened during the high-heat cleaning process. After self-cleaning completes, the control board sends a signal to reverse the motor and unlock the door latch.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the control board is unable to get the latch motor to rotate and unlock the door, it will display the F44 fault code and the lower oven will become unusable.<\/span><\/p>\n
