Description

A replacement latch spring that helps the appliance door latch return and hold securely, restoring reliable door engagement and proper cycle starts. Fits the original latch mechanism and installs quickly for common latch-related issues. What it does:

• Provides tension for the door latch so the strike stays engaged during operation
• Restores proper door closing and helps prevent door from popping open mid-cycle
• Commonly used when the latch feels loose, the door won't stay closed, or cycles won't start
• Works with the appliance's existing latch assembly to return the latch to its resting position

What's included:

• One spring for the door latch

Install notes:

• High-level replacement: remove access panel or door trim to reach the latch assembly
• Handle spring under tension carefully and wear eye protection to avoid injury
• If other latch components are damaged or worn, replace the entire latch assembly for a reliable repair
• Unplug the appliance or disconnect power before starting any repair
