Gene A Shallowater , TX March 08, 2021 Appliance: Model 61523210 Dryer door wouldn't stay closed. My dryer door would not stay closed even after replacing the puny hook and latch assembly that was the standard part that Sears provided. Replaced with the upgraded hook and latch assembly with the solid hook that is held in place by a screw. Much sturdier than the OEM clip-in hook.
