This switch latch secures the appliance door and engages the door switch so the unit operates only when the door is closed, helping restore normal start and safety interlock function. What it does:

• Replaces a worn or broken latch that prevents the door from fully engaging.
• Allows the door switch to activate so the appliance can start or run.
• Commonly used when the door won't stay closed, the unit won't start, or cycles unexpectedly.
• Fits the original mounting points and engages the existing door switch mechanism.

• Disconnect power (unplug or shut off breaker) before beginning any work.
• Basic hand tools are typically required; handle sharp edges carefully.
• Verify replacement part number matches the part being removed before installation.
