Common Symptoms
- Dryer door will not open.
- Dryer door will not close.
- The handle is visibly cracked, broken, or loose.
Check Before Replacing
- Disconnect power, then inspect the handle and its mounting areas for cracks, missing sections, or looseness.
- With the dryer off, operate the door gently by the handle to check whether the handle securely transmits movement to the door.
- If the handle appears intact, inspect the separate door latch, strike, and door alignment before attributing the issue to the handle.
Pro Tip
Verify the exact model and part number before ordering; similar-looking dryer handles can differ in shape or size.
