Description

This latch assembly secures the oven door and enables proper door locking for normal operation and self-clean cycles. It restores safe door closure and helps the oven detect a closed/locked door for heating and cleaning functions. What it does:

• Physically latches the oven door to keep it closed during cooking and self-clean cycles
• Allows the oven control to detect a closed/locked door so functions like self-clean can start
• Commonly replaced when the door won't stay shut, won't lock, or self-clean won't engage
• Prevents heat and steam from escaping by ensuring a tight door seal when closed

What's included:

• One latch assembly

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before service to avoid shock or injury
• Removal may require access behind the oven door or access panel; follow OEM instructions
• Handle carefully to avoid bending or damaging the latch mechanism or surrounding trim
• Verify proper operation before returning appliance to service
