A lead trapped against a hot component or pinched by the door can be damaged. The approved route is part of the accessory's safe use.
What the observation means
A connected probe should not prevent the door from closing normally. Its temperature rating also does not permit arbitrary contact with every element or grill surface. Avoid tugging the cable to remove the probe.
A useful next step
Inspect it only when cool and follow the manual's connection and removal method. Stop using a lead with visible damage, crushed insulation or an unreliable connection. Report the accessory reference and what happened; do not splice, extend or tape the cable as a repair.
Manuals and supporting guidance
Model-specific instructions take priority. These references support the practical principles discussed here; they do not diagnose your appliance.
