This is a door latch kit, but you may also know it as a door catch kit. It is designed for your dryer. This part helps hold the door shut on your appliance. This dryer door latch kit comes in two pieces: a door latch, and a door strike or clip. Both parts are a beige white color and made entirely of plastic. Together they are 2 inches wide, 1 inch long, and about 1 inch high. To replace the door latch kit, you will need a pair of needle-nose pliers and a number 2 Phillips screwdriver.

noisy rollers, broken latch
first, I unplug the power supply of the dryer then I removed the two screws at the bottom of the dryer then pulled out the front part of the dryer,unplugged the blue & yellow wire for the on/off switch for the door,at the back of the dryer I unscrew the pannel for the belt,disconect the belt,and I unscrew the four screws on both side of the front pannel to remove the front cover of the drum. Once I removed the front cover of the drum I can now remove the drum itself to access the drum support roller. I unscrew the rollers then replace it with the new once. It was an easy job. Thank you.
I used my screw driver to pry the old female end of the latch from the dryer unit. I forced the new female part of the latch into the hole and bang...45 seconds later the door closed securely --like new!

Dryer door latch broken, using duct tape every time to dry clothes.
Piece of cake. Used flat screwdriver to pry out female part on cabinet side, same with the male part on door. Every new replacement part was tight and operated like new. Thanks Part Select, you'll be forever on my list of online parts buying.

Blower fan was broken and spinning on the motor shaft
Removed front cover, removed housing cover, took old fan off, installed new fan, put covers back on. Your instructional video was very helpful. He told which screws to remove to get the covers off. I was unsure about how access the fan until I watched. Well done!
Press in the new female latch part with thumbs. Took about two seconds!

Dryer door would not stay closed
1. Popped out old latch from dryer with a screw driver and pressed in new latch with fingers. Did not need to replace the part that is in the door. Very simple repair. 2. Lint filter was worn out and needed replacing.

Ideal Replacement
The door latch matched the original and was installed by myself. I had to use a needle nose and it was a little difficult to get it just right. For the front of the dryer, the bottom base screws require a torx screwdriver. I used a small flathead and it was very hard to remove the screws. I did succeed and the new door latch works great. Nice to be able to avoid a costly appliance service call being able to find the part and view the video to replace it.

Easy repair and works great
The latch on our dryer broke after nearly 30 years of use. This was an easy replacement, and it shuts like it used to again.

Easy to remove and install
I purchased a simple dryer door latch for my 1983 Maytag dryer. The first part came and it was incomplete. When I contacted the company, they sent out a replacement at no cost to me and it came right away. Great customer service. They also supplied a video to a "sent product" email (for tracking). It showed me everything I needed to know about replacing the part. It was just a little thing, but the customer service was great! I highly recommend doing business with PartSelect.
