What Loc Door
actually means.
GE lists Loc Door flashing on a stove where self-clean was not selected as something to reset at the controls. It usually means the lock status and what the control expects have fallen out of step.

What to do when Loc Door shows on the stoveKind of codeDoor lock
The latch that holds the oven door shut during self-clean did not move where the stove told it to, or its switch reported the wrong position. It turns up most often during or right after a self-clean cycle, or once the door has been lifted off for cleaning. The latch, its switches, the hinges and how squarely the door closes are checked before the lock motor is changed.
