Harman Lid Latch: P68

[miteclipse]

Hello,

Noticed last year and the few times the stove has been started, the hopper lid when unlatched, it is extremely hard to open. I've narrowed it down to the rubber grommet (10 years old) being the culprit. I've tried wd-40, 3n1 oil, anti-seize, nothing seems to help. Can any one recommend a fix until I can purchase a new one? Also, if anyone has purchased a replacement, any recommendation on where to buy it online? I will call a local harman dealer tomorrow to see if they have one in stock.

Thanks

Not sure about a fix, but these guys have a decent sale on right now

I just bought the same one from them worked great no sticking anymore it’s like new.
