You can get your appliance fixed even faster! Click the link below to browse our supplier's huge selection of appliance parts and support the channel at the same time! (repairpartstea...)
Over time, these latches can become brittle or break due to wear and tear or forceful door handling. In this video, we'll show you how to identify if your latch needs replacement and how to reset it if it's stuck in the locked position.
Using a small piece of wire with a hook, you can easily flick the latch back into the open position, ensuring smooth operation of the door mechanism. We emphasize the importance of understanding the latch position to ensure proper door closure.
To find the right latch for your tumble dryer, you'll need the full model number, which can usually be found on the identification plate. Click the link below to find your spare need;

Replaced latch and couldn’t understand why it would close. The wire is a pro tip!!
So simple!! this saved me a call-out charge from Bosch, which would have cost me £110. And it's not obvious what causes the problem, until you see this. Thanks.
Really glad I was able to save you some money and get your tumble dryer up and running again @mikegranville4174 please remember to subscribe to our channel as that really helps us ruclips.net/user/shortse432SAb2g08 Thanks, Paul 👍
before your video on how to flip the door strike with a wire I tried on my own for 40 minutes. Was ready to call a service but thanks to your flicking idea fixed it in 5 minutes. Used it on my Bosch dryer front load machine :)
thank you the trick with the wire save me a disassembly and has my dryer closing again, now I just need to figure out what bearing needs to be replaced to stop the drum rumbling
Great tip! Fixed the latch on my Siemens condenser dryer using just a piece of wire, as described at 1:15, following a broken catch. No screwdriver even needed! Thanks.
very happy to help :)

thank you for your time, and please stay safe :)
You are an absolute star. Thank you so so much. Wondered why the heck the thing was set to lock and wouldn't allow the new catch to go in.
Glad we could help you hope you had a good Christmas
I doff my cap to you Sir! I thought I'd need to get a new dryer, but a £6 catch on Amazon + your unlocking technique has saved the day.
Hi @rayedenpoet6774 thanks a lot for your comment. It would be really helpful for me to get my video seen, as I'm no IT expert, to either share the channel or at least post it to your friends.

Since we work very hard in our warehouse making free video guides for you all on appliances, we always appreciate a beer, offering a choice of single or round beer. www.how-to-repair.com/help/buy-paul-a-beer/ Thanks 👍
Indeed a great tip. Doesn't matter which brand or type you have, seem to be the same for all these devices. Door now closes fine again after having replaced the latch.
Thanks mate thought I was gonna have to buy my mum a brand new tumble dryer hahah. Thanks for saving me money
Thanks so much used your method to open the lock for the new latch to work as I thought the actual lock was broken,very very helpful.
Thanks so much for the wire trick that really helped
Any time mate, glad it helped. Thanks a lot for the donation as well. I will continue to invest the donations that I receive predominantly into the new video technology that I'm learning with tracking cameras and better audio to make it easier for everyone to understand 🔋
This was brilliant 👏🏼 Thank you! I can't believe I've managed to fix my tumble dryer!

Pulling the latch out! I could not work out what I was ding wrong (on a completely different dryer) after I replaced the broken catch! After watching this and finding a bent piece of metal (used a bulldog clip) I was fixed.
Thank you! I had the latch replaced, but I couldn’t work out why the door wouldn’t close. One bent metal curtain hook later, it was closing again!
Thank you so much.
That was very helpful!
Glad it was helpful mate, I'm really pleased the video was helpful to you. Could you do me a favour and take part in a poll I've made about the lifespan of appliances? You just need to tick one of two boxes. It will only take about 10 seconds. This might help us improve how machines are made in the future😇
Here's the poll question: www.youtube.com/@How-to-repair/community
Also sharing will get more people to participate and we will have a greater impact with the manufacturers thank you for helping.
That saved me a stack of time. Thank you.

Excellent instructions, thank you.
Brilliant tip!!! Thanks so much.
Broke the latch.. it went in.. had to take most of it apart to get it back. Then realised it was just the on door hook that was broken. Swollen hand and found a dead mouse. If only you said check door hook 1st. It was such a clean cut, didn't realise it was broken.
Very useful, will give the wire trick a go.
Thank you, fixed! Keep up the great work.

I have to replace the catch in the door. A spring broke. So I need to take off top and front panel. Do you have a video on that? how to take off top on tvm63x ariston dryer
Thank you so much for this video. I'm trying to repair a Bosch Axxis Dryer wte86300us/09. I accidentally pushed the latch closed when cleaning the dryer, but the door was open so now I can't close it. I'm trying the wire technique but I think I'm doing something wrong. Do you have any other diagrams or videos showing this more zoomed in so I can try to mimic it? (I must be doing something wrong).
Hi, please use our contact us page and make sure you fill out the request for what your problem is. I will need the full model number of the identification plate and the details of your problem so that I can provide you with useful literature. A video shoot of the problem would be perfect as well.
Normally, I would get back to you within 24 hours but I am on my way to the IFA trade show in Berlin, so it can take more time to respond. Thanks for your understanding. www.how-to-repair.com/help/contact-us/
