Genuine Bosch Siemens Tumble Dryer Door Lock Latch 10022250

Genuine Bosch Siemens Tumble Dryer Door Lock Latch 10022250

If your tumble dryer door keeps popping open, will not stay shut or has to be held closed before the dryer will start, a worn or broken door latch is a likely cause. This genuine door lock latch, part number 10022250, is the catch in the dryer body that grips the door when you close it. It is used across a wide range of Bosch and Siemens tumble dryers, including many WTB, WTG, WTH and WTW series models.

What This Part Does

When you close the door, the hook on the door clicks into this latch and is held firmly shut. Pressing or pulling the door releases it again. The latch also keeps the door closed against the door switch so the dryer can confirm the door is shut before it runs. Over time the plastic catch and its spring can wear or break, and the door will no longer stay closed. Fitting a new latch restores a firm, secure close.

Common Fault Symptoms

• The door pops open during a cycle or will not stay shut.
• You have to hold or push the door closed before the dryer will start.
• The door closes loosely with no firm click.
• The old latch is cracked, worn or its spring has failed.

Repair Difficulty

Easy to Moderate: the latch is normally held by screws on the front panel around the door opening and can be changed with a screwdriver. The exact screw type varies by model. Some models need the door or part of the front trim removed for better access. The door hook on the door itself and the door switch are separate parts.

Typical Tools Required

• Screwdriver (Torx or cross-head, depending on model)
• Torch, to see the fixing screws inside the door opening
