Sample Model Number Tags
Model numbers can be made up of numbers (1005400, for example) or a combination of letters and numbers (LAT1000AAE). The model number will most likely appear on either a paper sticker or a metal plate. Your appliance's model number tag may look similar to the sample model number tags shown here (model number highlighted in yellow):
This door strike is an authentic OEM replacement part that is compatible with various models of top-load washing machines. The door strike is located along the door frame, where it engages with the latch when the door is closed. It keeps the door securely shut so that the washer can start and prevents it from swinging open while the washer is running. It is a safety mechanism that prevents water leakage, injuries, and damage to the washer. If the door strike is damaged or worn down, it may be unable to lock the door properly and the washer may stop mid-cycle or fail to start altogether. Replace the door strike promptly to ensure the proper functioning of your washer.

Easy Fix - Fit Perfect
So glad you guys had this tiny piece. The hook broke and our machine would not longer wash due to the latching safety mechanism. The item arrived quickly, was incredibly easy to install and worked!

The lid was closed to hard causing the door strike, lid lock bezel and assembly to break.
Changing the door strike was simple just a quarter turn and it pops off. Changing the assembly, remove the screws from the back side at the top, move to facing the front of the machine pull the top toward you about a half inch and it will open. From the back unplug the correct wire, remove assembly and then install in reverse. Good luck.
Using a pair of pliers turn counter clockwise to remove broken part. Install the new part by turning clockwise. Soooo easy with install time of less than a minute.

Tab on door strike got broken off and washer would not operate without it.
Pushed in on door strike and rotated it counterclockwise, removed broken strike and installed new strike. NOTE: when removing the old strike (turning counterclockwise) it felt like it might break and/or was attached with an screw that I didn't see but it came right out.

Never recieved
Ordered this part 3 times over a period of several months and never received it. Only would get emails saying it was out of stock and would be sent soon. Eventually had to but a whole new washer. Will never recomend this company or another Maytag product.
