Parts for Maytag DE712: 02 - Door Parts

The Dryer Door Latch Kit is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It ensures the dryer door stays securely closed during operation, allowing the dryer to function correctly and safely. This kit typically includes the latch, strike, and necessary mounting hardware for easy installation.

Causes of a bad door latch can include wear and tear from frequent use, accidental damage from forceful closing, or alignment issues due to the door being knocked out of place. A faulty latch can prevent the dryer from starting or cause it to stop mid-cycle if the door doesn't stay closed.

Symptoms of a bad dryer door latch include:

• The dryer door not staying closed
• The dryer not starting or stopping unexpectedly during a cycle
• Difficulty in closing or latching the door
• Loose or misaligned latch components

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Secures components with constant tension to prevent looseness and vibration. Replace if broken, fatigued, or missing. Verify fit with your model number.
