Jenn-Air Wall Oven Latch, Catch, Lock Parts

This door strike is the catch the latch engages to hold the oven door closed. It restores a firm, aligned close so heat stays in and the appliance can detect a fully shut door for normal operation.

• Aligns with the latch to keep the door closed and sealed properly
• Provides the catch point required for latch/lock engagement
• Wear, bending, or breakage can cause a loose door, heat escaping, or an oven light that won't turn off
• Prevents self-clean or other cycles that require a fully closed/locked door from starting

• Disconnect power at the breaker; if gas, shut off the gas supply. Allow the appliance to cool completely
• Typically mounts to the door or cabinet frame with screws; transfer and reuse existing hardware
• Position and tighten evenly so the latch engages smoothly; minor alignment adjustments may be needed
• After installation, verify the door closes fully, seals well, and the light turns off

This door latch keeps the door securely closed and engages the door switch/interlock so the appliance operates as designed. Replacing a worn or broken latch helps resolve door-related errors and restores reliable, safe operation.

• Secures the door against the strike for proper closure and alignment
• Actuates the door switch/interlock so controls recognize a closed door
• Helps prevent operation when the door is open or not fully latched
• Common symptoms: door won't latch or stay closed; unit won't start or shows a "door/open-close" message; broken or loose latch hook

• Disconnect power before servicing; use proper PPE and beware of sharp edges
• Access the latch through the door panel/trim as applicable; use non-marring tools to avoid damage
• Transfer any reusable clips/springs from the old latch to the new part
• After installation, verify smooth door closure and that the control detects the door as closed

This lid switch actuator engages the washer's safety switch when the lid is closed so cycles can start and spin as designed. Replace a broken or missing actuator to restore proper lid switch engagement and reliable operation.

• Engages the lid switch when the lid is closed to enable agitation and spin
• A worn, cracked, or missing actuator can cause the washer not to start or to stop before spin
• Intermittent operation that changes when pressing on the lid often indicates misalignment
• Lack of an audible "click" from the lid switch can point to a faulty actuator or alignment

• Disconnect power before servicing; do not work on a live appliance
• Access the lid/switch area per your model's service procedure
• Remove the damaged actuator and install the new part, securing as designed
• Before reassembly, close the lid to ensure the switch clicks and engages properly
