WB06X10610 - GE Microwave Latch

This GE Microwave Latch (WB06X10610) is a genuine part designed specifically for GE microwaves. It plays a critical role in ensuring your microwave operates safely and efficiently. The latch holds your microwave door closed during operation to contain internal heat and prevent microwave energy leakage. Using a combination of springs or levers, it aligns the door against seal surfaces for optimal containment. When your microwave's cooking cycle completes, the door release buttons retract the latches, allowing you to safely open the door. If the latch fails, it can result in microwave energy leakage, which is a safety hazard that requires immediate attention. A sturdy latch is essential for the safe containment of microwave operations. Symptoms of a failing latch may include difficulty in closing the microwave door, a door that won't stay shut, or an unresponsive door release mechanism. Before purchasing, please verify your device's model number to ensure compatibility with this part.
