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):
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.
How Buying OEM Parts Can Save You Time and Money
Why buy the real thing?
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. Simply put, this means that the company who made your appliance is also supplying the replacement part for it.

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.

I broke the door strike on the dryer.
Wife was out of town, visiting family. I broke the door strike by wedging the dryer door between the laundry room door, closed the laundry room door and it snapped the door strike breaking it. I ordered the part, and it shipped fast using the standard shipping, nothing fancy. Grabbed a pair of pliers and pushed the new door strike into pl

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.
