Description
The door catch lever is the mechanism that securely latches the appliance door in the closed position during operation. This component ensures the door stays firmly shut and activates safety switches when properly engaged. Replace it when the door won't stay closed, pops open during cycles, or the appliance won't start due to door latch issues.
