H0030200784A Genuine Dryer Door Hook for Fisher & Paykel, Haier Dryers DE6060M1 DE7060G1 DE7060P1 DE5060M1 DE4060M1 HDV60E1 HDV70E1 HDY-C70

If your dryer door won't stay closed, a broken hook is a common cause. H0030200784A is the genuine hook that sits on the door of many Fisher & Paykel and Haier dryers. On file it suits Fisher & Paykel models from the DE4060M1 and DE5060M1 up to the DE6060M1, plus the DE7060G1 and DE7060P2, along with the Haier HDV60E1, HDV40A1, HDV70E1 and HDY-C70. It's a small part, but the dryer relies on it to keep the door shut.

Dryer door popping open or dryer not starting

The hook on the door engages a catch in the cabinet when you close it, and holds the door firmly against the seal. Most dryers also use a door switch that only lets the drum turn while the door is properly shut. When the hook snaps, wears or bends, the door can swing open mid-cycle, refuse to latch at all, or close loosely enough that the dryer won't start. Hooks often break after years of the door being slammed or leaned on, so check yours for cracks or a missing tip.

Fitting the door hook

Unplug the dryer first. Open the door and look at how the old hook is held in, as some are clipped and others are secured from inside the door. Remove any screws holding the door's inner panel if you need access, and keep them together. Seat the new hook so it sits square, close the door to check it latches with a positive click, then run the dryer briefly to confirm it starts.
