Frigidaire Switch Holder Latch 5304509457 OEM Part

Microwave Latch Hook - Door Switch Holder (note: switches not included). This component is compatible with a range of brands, notably Frigidaire, Electrolux, and serves as a replacement part for certain Sears-Kenmore microwave models.

Signs indicating a defective latch hook may consist of:

- The door not closing or latching adequately
- Difficulty in closing or unexpected opening of the door during use
- Leakage of microwave energy from the door seals
- Error messages regarding door latching problems

Furthermore, this latch hook can also be used with Electrolux, Westinghouse, and Kelvinator microwave models.
