The door strike tab is broken or worn, preventing the door from catching and locking — washer will not start a cycle.
A damaged door strike fails to engage the door lock switch, so the control board never receives the 'door closed' signal required to begin operation.
An improperly latched door due to a broken strike allows water to escape from the door seal area during wash and spin cycles.
When the door lock circuit is open because of a faulty strike, the washer's safety interlock prevents the water inlet valve from opening.
💡 Pro Tip: Is Your Door Strike the Problem?
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Washer door won't latch or stay closed during the cycle
⚠️ Washer will not start or displays a door lock error code (e.g., "LOC")
⚠️ Washer leaks from the door area due to incomplete seal
⚠️ Washer will not fill with water (door interlock not signaling control board)
Pro Tip: Inspect the plastic strike on the door — if the tabs or tines are visibly broken, cracked, or sheared off, replacement is the only reliable fix. Glue will not hold under repeated stress. Always replace the strike and door lock assembly together if either shows wear, as a misaligned or worn lock will quickly destroy a new strike.
