It holds the door shut so the dryer can detect that it's closed and start the drum. Plastic tappets wear, crack or snap with use, especially if the door is slammed or leant on. Without a sound tappet the door won't latch, so it may spring open, the dryer may refuse to start, or it may stop partway through a cycle when the door shifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine AEG \/ Electrolux dryer door tappet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number 140068150014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic, sold as one tappet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for 11 AEG and Electrolux dryer models on file\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlastic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eQuantity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReplacing the door tappet\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the dryer and open the door wide. Look at how the old tappet is held on the door, which may be by clips or a screw under the inner door panel, and remove what's left of it. Fit the new tappet in the same position, then close the door gently to check it catches firmly and releases without force. Run a short program to confirm the dryer starts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I make sure this is the right tappet?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck your model against the list on this page, using the rating label around the door opening.
