We\u2019ll walk you through how to remove the old latch and install the new one so your oven functions like it should.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/rbMZ8NgiKm8\"><b>Watch: How to replace the door latch<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The information in this article may not apply to your specific appliance model. We recommend consulting your manufacturer&#8217;s documentation or<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/repair-help\/\"> <b>contact us<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with any questions.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let&#8217;s get started<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before we dive in, let&#8217;s go over some important safety information. Whenever you are doing repairs on any appliance, you&#8217;ll want to unplug the appliance or turn off circuit breakers to avoid the risk of electrocution. Safety should always come first!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, onto the specifics of this repair. To replace an oven door latch, you&#8217;ll need:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">New oven door latch (WP9761013) &#8211; This is a direct replacement part that fits Whirlpool, KitchenAid, and Maytag models. Use your model number to locate the correct part number.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\">Phillips head screwdriver<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Replacing the oven door latch is a fairly straightforward process. We&#8217;ll be removing an inner access panel, taking out the old latch, putting in the new one, and reassembling everything.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Removing the Inner Panel<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first step is to remove the inner panel so we can access the latch mechanism.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure the oven door is closed, lift up the cooktop, and make sure it is locked in the up position out of the way.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look underneath the top for a removable panel. You&#8217;ll see tabs or screws holding it in place.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lift up the edges of the inner panel. It may take some wiggling to get it free.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once loose, pull the panel toward you while lifting up slightly to clear the center vent pipe.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Support the top of the panel as you lift it up, being careful not to bend it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rest the panel on the legs holding the cooktop up so it&#8217;s out of the way<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that we&#8217;ve removed the inner panel, we have a clear pathway to the oven door latch mechanism. It&#8217;s time to proceed with removing the old latch.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Removing the Old Oven Door Latch<\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fully open the oven door to expose the latch.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look for two Phillips head screws holding the old latch in place.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using your Phillips screwdriver, remove both screws. Set them aside in a safe place.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slide the old latch horizontally to detach it from the latch rod.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove the old latch from the oven door.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Alright now that we have all the necessary tools and equipment gathered, we can proceed with confidence to install our new replacement oven door latch. Taking this step will not only make sure we have the proper functionality of our oven but also guarantee the safety of our household members while using it. Let&#8217;s get started!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Installing the New Oven Door Latch<\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take the new oven door latch (WP9761013) out of its packaging.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locate the latch rod on the oven door.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slide the new latch onto the rod horizontally, just like the old one.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feed the end of the latch into the hole on the oven body.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Line up the screw holes on the new latch.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Insert the two Phillips screws and tighten them to secure the latch in place.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Helpful tip: The screws may feel tight at first since they create their own threads.

Make sure the holes line up.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Push the oven door hinges back into position.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lock the panel legs back into the oven.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Replace the screws or push-in clips to secure the panel again.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Note: There may be two sizes of screws &#8211; make sure to put any larger screws towards the back.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Testing the Repair<\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plug the oven back in or turn the circuit breaker back on.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open and close the oven door several times to test the latch.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Verify that the door is closing, latching, and sealing properly.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If needed, adjust the strike plate on the oven frame until the alignment is right.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Enjoy your perfectly functional oven door once again!<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additional information<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thank you for reading!
