Error code 4d/51
Appliance Range
Quick answer

4d/51 on a Kenmore 665 model range means the oven door and lock switches disagree.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so 4d/51 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Oven door and oven door lock switches disagree.

What 4d/51 flags

Two switches inside a Kenmore 665 model freestanding range, one for the door and one for its lock, are reporting conflicting states. Owners see 4d/51 when that happens; 4d/11, 4d/12 and 4d/52 are filed in the same entry.

Order of checks

  • Cycle the door and watch the lamp inside the oven. A lamp that ignores the door points to a new oven door switch.
  • A lamp that responds properly moves the manual on to the lock side: unplug the range and push any loose wires back onto the lock assembly harness.
  • Damaged harness or visibly damaged lock assembly: each is replaced.
