Description
The Door Latch Bracket is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This bracket is crucial for securing the dishwasher door latch, ensuring that the door stays closed during operation. A properly functioning door latch bracket helps maintain a tight seal, preventing water leaks and enabling the dishwasher to run efficiently.
Causes of a bad door latch bracket can include regular wear and tear, damage from repeated door openings and closings, or physical impact that compromises its integrity. A malfunctioning bracket can lead to door alignment issues and ineffective sealing.
Symptoms of a bad door latch bracket include:
- The dishwasher door not latching or staying closed
- Water leaking from around the door during cycles
- The door appearing misaligned or loose
- Difficulty starting the dishwasher due to improper door closure
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
