door would no longer catch when shut
Having read the instructions and watched the tape, I pried out the remaining catch with a flat screwdriver, read about what the color scheme on the parts wasbout and pushed in the correct part. Voila ! Done in probably two minutes.(By an 82 year old woman!)

door would open during drying cycle and shut off machine
Got online with parts select, easily found the parts needed and ordered them. They arrived very quickly. The repair itself took all of 5 minutes and now the dryer door stays shut like it is supposed to. Only complaint is shipping was more than the parts but then again, I didn't waste a lot of time running all over town looking for what I needed. So, in the long run I saved money , especially when compared to a calling someone else to fix it.(big bucks for even the most minor service call as you all know).

Broken door catch
Removed two small screws on door edge, pop out broken part, insert new part, replace screws. Took 2 minutes 18 seconds. Nice to have various door catches in the Kit. This was a repair on a 1979 Whirlpool Dryer. Great price & service!!

Dryer door would not close and latch on both catches w/o pushing them shut individually.
Our make/model was not on the online instruction, but it was similar. Ours had a glass (plastic)front window in the door. To remove the top catch you had to take out the top four screws that hold the door together (philips head screws) allowing you to pull back the gray plastic strip to access the top latch, then replace it like in the online directions using a needle nose pliers. The bottom catch, once the two remaining the screws were out gives you access to the bottom catch. Remove it with the pliers and snap the new ones into place. You can completely take out the window when you replace the bottom latch if you want.
