The range latch screw is a small fastener used to secure the door latch mechanism or latch strike plate firmly to the range frame. It keeps the latch components from shifting or loosening over time with repeated use. Replace this screw when the original is stripped, missing, or corroded, causing the latch assembly to feel loose or the oven door to not close securely.
