5304525218 / 154543901 Dishwasher Door Latch Assembly

Key Features

  • Reinforced Structural Polymer: Manufactured from a specialized, high-density plastic designed to withstand the repetitive mechanical stress of daily latching and the high-humidity environment of the dishwasher door.
  • Integrated Dual Micro-Switch: Features a high-precision internal switch assembly that communicates the "door closed" signal to the control board, acting as a critical safety cut-off that prevents the unit from running while open.
  • High-Tension Spring Interface: Engineered with a heavy-duty internal spring mechanism that provides a firm, secure "click" upon closing, ensuring the door remains airtight and watertight throughout the wash and dry cycles.
  • Vibration-Resistant Terminal Blocks: Includes standardized electrical spade terminals designed to maintain a low-resistance connection, preventing common "no-start" issues caused by heat-related connector failure.

Compatibility & Fitment

This door latch is the standard replacement for most Frigidaire-manufactured dishwashers produced after 2010. Key compatible brands include:

  • Frigidaire / Frigidaire Gallery: Fits hundreds of FFBD, FGBD, FGID, and LFBD series models (e.g., FFBD2406NW, FGBD2434PF, FGID2466QF).
  • Electrolux: Compatible with various EDW and EID high-end series units utilizing the 154543901 style.
  • Kenmore (587 Series): Fits dozens of 587-prefix models produced by Frigidaire for Sears (e.g., 587.15112401, 587.15263900).
  • Tappan & Crosley: Direct fit for dozens of budget-friendly tall-tub models utilizing this specific latch housing.
  • Note: This latch is typically located at the Top-Center of the Inner Door Panel, behind the control console.

When to Replace

  • Dishwasher Won't Start: The power is on and the cycle is selected, but the unit will not start because the latch fails to engage the internal micro-switch and "signal" the door is closed.
  • Door Won't Stay Latched: The door pops open mid-cycle or refuses to "click" into place, often caused by a broken internal plastic catch or a snapped spring.
  • "Close Door" Error Message: The control panel displays a "PF" or "door" error even when the door appears to be shut.
  • Leaking from Top of Door: If the latch doesn't pull the door tight against the gasket, steam and water can escape from the top of the unit during the wash phase.
  • Mechanical Handle Failure: The handle feels "loose" or has no resistance when you pull it, indicating the latch assembly has snapped internally.

Installation Tips

  • Safety First: You MUST unplug the dishwasher or turn off the circuit breaker. This repair involves working directly with 120V electrical connectors inside the door panel.
  • Access the Latch: Open the dishwasher door and remove the 6-10 screws holding the inner stainless steel panel to the outer console. Support the outer panel so it doesn't fall and pull the wires.
  • Swap the Wires: Before removing the old latch, note the position of the wire connectors. It is often helpful to take a quick photo with your phone to ensure the new switches are wired correctly.
  • Check the Door Strike: While the door is open, inspect the **154543701 Door Strike** (the metal loop on the tub frame). If the strike is bent or loose, the new latch will not engage properly.
  • Alignment Test: Before tightening all the door screws, close the door slowly to ensure the new latch is perfectly centered on the strike. A minor misalignment can cause the latch to snap prematurely.

Top notch quality copper and cold flexibility.
Size: 12 silicone wire red 10ft and black 10ft, Color: silicone wire red and black
This is what you need for most 13.8 Volt power pigtails on portable ham radios. They will safely handle over 200 watts in most applications and the wire is flexible in the cold. I have set it outside as a reality check when it was 18.3F degrees and it flexes essentially the same as at room temperature. The copper itself is very fine strands and will likely never fail from normal use flexing. It solders easily with my 40 watt soldering iron. I will not hesitate to buy more if I need it.

Excellent wire! Flexible and easy to solder.
Size: 12 silicone wire red 10ft and black 10ft, Color: silicone wire red and black
This wire is great! I echo the other reviews indicating that the insulation and wire are very flexible and easy to solder. I have had wire that makes you question your ability to solder. Then there is wire like this that makes it so easy!

Best wire on Amazon
Size: 12 silicone wire red 10ft and black 10ft, Color: silicone wire red and black
I am convinced that this is some of the best wire on Amazon, if not in general. It's much thicker with more strands inside than other wire labelled as the same AWG. It has much higher quality insulation that can withstand double the temps of the cheaper stuff (big deal if using in engine bay etc.). And even then somehow its supper supple and soft to work with, strips very easily and cleanly. Definitely recommend spending the extra $ to go with BNTECHGO brand for wire. I was very please with both the 12 and 14 AWG wire in 10ft red and black.
