TThe door strike for your dryer is mounted on the dryer frame that the door shuts onto. It fits into the door catch on the door and keeps the door closed. If the door strike is damaged or missing, the door will not lock properly and not only will this cause the door to swing open, but it won’t allow the dryer to start properly. It is a small piece of metal, about 1 inch in length and is sold individually.

Why wasn't the original part this good?
The new door strike is great, but I want to know why the original one, which was broken when the dryer was delivered, was so flimsy. Seems like a bait and switch thing to me. Plus I had to buy it myself, since warranty delivery is iffy, as I was told by the retailer who sold me the dryer.

My panel lights up but machine wont start. It is missing one of the prongs in the door but it closes fine
For model number GTDS560Ef1 WS1
Hello John, thank you for your inquiry. It is recommended that the door strike, PartSelect number PS266893, be replaced, as the missing prong may be causing this issue and is not allowing the interlock switch to register that the door is closed. You may also want to check the door interlock switch as well, to be sure there are no underlying issues with the switch itself. We hope this helps.
