Rank: Member Groups: Registered Joined: 7/20/2009(UTC) Posts: 1		Three weeks ago in response to the door popping open mid-cycle, I bent down the strike (AP3885607) to the point that it lightly contacts the bottom of the latch (AP3179951) when I close the door. This action gave me satisfactory results through a number of cycles, but now the door has resumed popping open mid-cycle most of the time. Is it likely that replacing the latch (AP3179951) will solve this problem for a year or so? Should I replace the strike (AP3885607) at the same time?
