The Door Latch is an OEM part for GE dryers. It functions to securely fasten the dryer door shut during drying cycles. The latch fastens the door closed using a tension-based locking mechanism that engages automatically when closing the door.

Symptoms of a faulty door latch include:

• Inability to start cycles with the door ajar
• Excessive moisture escaping around the edges of the poorly sealed door during drying
• Loud banging sounds from an improperly closing door
• Door popping open unintentionally mid-cycle 

This GE replacement part is compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
