Whirlpool w11316250 Door Latch Lock

Product Description

The WHIRLPOOL w11316250 is a door latch lock replacement part designed to restore secure door closure on compatible Whirlpool appliances. The latch mechanism engages the door strike to keep the appliance door firmly closed during operation, a function critical to both safety and performance. When the original latch wears out, breaks, or fails to hold, this OEM-style replacement restores correct door operation. Installation is straightforward for an appliance technician or qualified service professional familiar with the appliance type.

This door latch lock is suited for residential appliance applications where the factory-original latch has failed due to normal wear, physical damage, or repeated cycling. It is intended as a direct replacement for the original part in compatible Whirlpool appliance models. Technicians performing routine maintenance or responding to a door-seal or door-lock complaint will find this part appropriate for restoring correct function.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement door latch lock for compatible Whirlpool brand appliances. Verify fitment against the appliance model number before ordering, as door latch parts are often model-specific.
