Product Description

WHY CHOOSE OUR W10240513 WASHER LID LOCK STRIKE?

🔒
Smallest Part, Biggest ImpactThis little plastic tab is what the lid lock switch reads when the lid closes. If it's cracked, knocked off, or missing, the washer thinks the lid is open and refuses to start. It'll sit there flashing an error code and doing nothing — and the actual fix takes less than 5 minutes.
🛠️
Snap-On Replacement, No ToolsThe strike clips onto a post on the lid interior with a spring retention clip. Pull the old broken piece off the post, press the new one on until it clicks. That's the entire repair. We make this to the same clip geometry and plastic spec as the original — it seats just as firmly.
📐
OEM Dimensions — 2-3/4" × 13/16" × 1-3/8"Exact match to the factory dimensions. The spring clip retention force is the same — it won't rattle loose after a few wash cycles the way cheap knockoffs sometimes do.
✅
Wide Brand CompatibilityCompatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Admiral, Crosley, Inglis, Kenmore, and Roper top-load models. This strike has been used across Whirlpool's top-load platform for over 15 years — there are a lot of machines out there that need it.
⚠️
Strike vs. Full Latch Kit (W10404050)W10240513 is just the strike — the tab on the lid. W10404050 is the full latch kit that includes both the strike and the switch mechanism on the cabinet. If only the tab is broken or missing, this part is all you need. If the mechanism itself is broken, you need W10404050.

💡 Strike vs. lid lock switch — which one failed?

⚠️ Open the lid and look at the underside near the front edge — the strike tab is cracked, broken off, or missing entirely

⚠️ Washer won't start and shows F5 E1, Lid, or LO FL error code

⚠️ Lid closes but the control acts as if it's still open

⚠️ Washer starts then immediately stops as if the lid opened mid-cycle

If the strike tab looks intact but the washer still won't start, the problem is the lid lock switch assembly (W10404050) — not this part. The switch is inside the cabinet at the lid opening. Test it with a multimeter for continuity with the lid closed. No continuity means the switch is dead.

Questions & Answers

What's the difference between W10240513 and W10404050?
Answered by Support Team  ·  May 8, 2023
W10240513 is just the strike — the small plastic tab mounted on the lid that triggers the lock switch. W10404050 is the complete latch kit: it includes a new strike plus the switch mechanism that mounts inside the cabinet. If only the plastic tab on the lid is broken, W10240513 is all you need. If the switch mechanism is also bad, get W10404050.
My washer shows F5 E1 error. Will this fix it?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Feb 14, 2023
Usually yes, if the cause is a broken or missing strike tab. The F5 E1 error means the control board isn't confirming a closed and locked lid. Open the lid and look at the underside — if the plastic tab is cracked or gone, replacing it clears the error. If the tab is intact, the lid lock switch is likely bad instead.
The strike snapped off inside my washer lid — how do I get the broken piece out?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 17, 2024
Use a flathead screwdriver to push the spring clip sideways while pulling the broken body away from the post. The clip releases and the piece comes free. If the clip anchor point inside the lid is cracked or stripped, the new strike won't seat securely — in that case W10404050 gives you a more complete repair.
Does this fit Kenmore top-load washers?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jun 12, 2024
Yes, for Kenmore top-load washers built by Whirlpool — which is the majority of them. Kenmore models built by LG or Samsung use different strikes. If you're not sure, look up your model number on Sears PartsDirect to confirm manufacturer.
My new strike feels a little loose after snapping it in. Is that normal?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Sep 5, 2024
A small amount of lateral play is normal — the strike is designed to float slightly so it aligns with the switch every time the lid closes, even if the lid hinges have a little wear. What matters is that it doesn't fall off the post. Push it firmly inward — if the clip is fully seated you should feel a definite resistance when trying to pull it back out.
