The Latch Ovn is an OEM part for GE ranges. It functions as the latch mechanism that secures the oven door in the closed position during cooking.

The latch oven is responsible for safely and securely holding the oven door shut while in use. It allows for controlled opening and closing of the door to facilitate easy access inside the oven cavity.

Causes of a bad latch oven can include wear and tear over time, failure of mechanical components within the latch mechanism, or damage from overtightening or forced opening/closing of the oven door.

Symptoms of a bad latch oven include:

• The oven door not latching fully or securely in the closed position
• Difficulty opening or closing the oven door
• The door popping or springing open unexpectedly

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