Normally, the only time that the OVEN ON light will blink is in the CLEAN mode when this cycle is finished. The CLEAN light is normally blinking along with the OVEN ON light in this situation. You could have a problem with the electronic control board or the oven door lock mechanism that is causing this problem. There is also a possibility that a failed thermistor (temperature sensor) or a wiring problem could cause this failure.

There are times when an glitch or power surge through the electrical power lines will confuse the electronic control board in the range. You can sometimes reset the control board by unplugging the range for 5 minutes. After plugging the range back in, you may be able to reset the clock and the control may resume normal operation. This is a long shot but you can try it.

If you are not able to reset the control by using the method mentioned above, I recommend that you call a service technician to diagnose and repair this type of failure.
