Located on the door of front load washing machines, the Door Strike ensures that the door will lock by activating the switch, which in turn allows the appliance to run properly. If your washer door will not open or close, is leaking, or the machine will not start or spin, your door strike may be damaged and should be replaced. Regular wear and tear, or a misaligned door may cause the piece to break. This is an easy repair and requires a Phillips screwdriver. This genuine OEM part is made of white plastic, approximately 2 inches in length, and is held in place by 2 screws on the inside of the door. Simply unscrew and remove the old part, line up the placement of the new part using the notch, and tighten the screws back into place.

The door lock assembly is a genuine OEM part for your washing machine. This part informs the washer that the door is closed and locked in place, which allows the machine to start its cycle. If you are not able to open or close the door, or the washer will not start, the door lock assembly may need to be replaced. This can happen if the switch has shorted out, which will prevent the latch from locking. Before beginning this repair, please be sure to disconnect the power supply to your washer. You will need a Phillips screwdriver in order to replace this part.
