General Electric Door Latch Kit WD13X10003 OEM Part

Dishwasher Door Latch Assembly

This part resolves challenges associated with the door latch mechanism. Specifically designed to be compatible with GE-manufactured appliances, it also fits Hotpoint, General Electric, and some Sears-Kenmore models. As an OEM part tailored for GE dishwashers, it guarantees the secure closure and locking of the door. This function is vital to prevent water leakage during wash cycles and to ensure that the dishwasher operates exclusively when the door is properly shut.

Door latch troubles typically arise from normal wear, unintended damage due to excessive force, or the deterioration of its mechanical or electrical components.

Indicators of a malfunctioning Door Latch Assembly include:

- Challenges in securing the dishwasher door in a closed or locked position
- The appliance failing to start, highlighting an issue with the latch engagement
- Water seepage around the door, indicating an incomplete seal
- Noticeable damage to the latch impacting its operation

The OEM part is also suitable for Hotpoint, RCA, and select Kenmore models.

This component addresses several issues:

- Dishwasher failure to start
- Malfunctioning door latch
- Inability to close the door
