Customer Questions and Answers for Dryer Door Latch by Ge

The Dryer Latch is an OEM part for GE dryers that keeps the dryer door securely closed during operation. It provides a secure connection between the door and the dryer cabinet to prevent any accidental openings while the machine is in use.

A bad Dryer Latch can occur due to regular use, wear and tear, or accidental damage. If the latch becomes worn, broken, or fails to engage properly, it can lead to issues such as the door popping open during a drying cycle or the dryer not starting at all.

Symptoms of a bad Dryer Latch include:

• Door not staying closed during a drying cycle.
• Difficulty in latching the door shut.
• Visible damage or deformation of the latch.
• Inability to start the dryer.

Replacing the Dryer Latch with this genuine GE part ensures a secure and reliable closure for your dryer door. This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
