FAQs

This kit contains the necessary components to restore your dryer door's latching mechanism, including two 696144 strikes, one 690081 yellow catch, one 3392538 blue catch, and one 3398175 green catch.
This kit is compatible with a wide range of dryers manufactured by Whirlpool, Kenmore, GE, Roper, and KitchenAid.
The most common signs are the dryer door failing to stay closed during operation, the door popping open unexpectedly, or the dryer failing to start because the door switch is not being fully engaged by the latch.
This kit replaces OEM part number 279570 and cross-references with numerous legacy numbers, including AP3094183, PS334230, 14205029, 236877, 420198, 423232, 690081, 696144, 3392538, and 3398175.
Installation is straightforward and typically takes 10 to 15 minutes. You will generally only need a flat-head or Phillips screwdriver to remove the old catch from the door and the strike from the dryer frame, then snap the new components into place.
The different colors (yellow, blue, and green) correspond to slight variations in design used across different dryer models over the years. You should match the color of the new catch to the one currently installed on your dryer door to ensure a proper fit.
