Frigidaire 5304511361 Washer Drain Pump Retractor

Product Description

The FRIGIDAIRE 5304511361 is a washer drain pump retractor designed as a direct OEM-replacement component for front-load washing machines. The retractor functions as part of the door locking assembly, engaging and disengaging the latch mechanism to secure the door throughout the wash and spin cycles. Proper door retention prevents water leakage, protects the motor and pump from interruption mid-cycle, and maintains wash efficiency. This part is manufactured to OEM specifications, supporting reliable fitment and restoring original door-lock performance. Installation is straightforward for qualified appliance technicians familiar with front-load washer door assemblies.

This retractor is used in residential front-load washing machines where the door interlock system requires replacement due to wear, failure to latch, or door-open error codes. It is applicable in scenarios where the existing retractor no longer engages the door locking mechanism consistently, resulting in cycle interruptions or safety lockout failures. Appliance service technicians and experienced DIYers typically handle this replacement as part of a door-lock assembly service.
