Bill S West Melbourne , FL January 27, 2018 Appliance: Model FRIGIDAIRE ATFB6000ES Broken door & latch front loading washing machine. New Door Parts and a Latch. The hinge design of this type is always a pain in the derriere to adjust/align so that the door closes correctly without riding high or low when being closed, otherwise wear on the latch mechanism will result in failure.. At first the door would not stay closed and needed to be held closed when starting the cycle to have the door latch shut. I ended up putting a washer behind the hinge at each of the three screws to shim the hinge out because the fit was way to tight. That seems to have solved the problem. In the long run I may need to add another set of washers to shim further. By the way...the parts were at my door within 36 hours. Read More...
