Manufacturer Part Number 5304505088
This is a door latch, also known as a door strike, for some models of washing machine. This part secures to the door of the washer and secures the door when it is shut, to ensure the inside drum of the washer does not leak. If your washer does not start properly and/or shut all the way, this latch is likely causing the issues you are experiencing and needs to be replaced. This latch is made of a brushed metal material and features two holes to secure it with screws. To replace this latch, simply unthread the screws of the old latch to remove it, and secure the new latch with the existing screws. This latch is not sold with any other parts or accessories, so any securing screws are sold separately.

PartSelect Number PS16218028
Manufacturer Part Number W11457841
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.

PartSelect Number PS3618292
Manufacturer Part Number AGM73610701
This magnetic door plunger, also known as the magnet holder, is built for your washer. When you order this part, you will receive the plastic housing and a spring that goes with it. The magnetic door plunger attaches to the inner door panel of the washer. It holds the door open when the washer is not running, and allows the door and tub seal to dry. This prevents mold and mildew from building up. Occasionally, the plastic tabs on the housing can break, and when this happens the part will need to be replaced. You may also notice that your washer lid or door will not close; this can also be a sign of a damaged magnetic door plunger.

Door would not close
There is a magnet at the bottom of the door which allows the door to be held ajar when the washer is not in use to allow the tub and gaskets to dry. A tab on the plastic housing which retains the magnet broke which allowed the housing to pull free of the door and stick itself to the machine preventing the door to close. Easy fix to replace the magnet was $18. Instructions were included in the box. Part number on the drawing was A165. PS3618292 Magnetic Door Plunger Read more...

Paul from DAYTON, OH
Broken door latch
First, I went to the PartSelect website and easily found the part at a reasonable price. I ordered it early on a Wednesday afternoon, and gladly spent the extra $25 to ship it overnight. That evening, PartSelect sent me an email stating that the part had shipped that very day, and - mistakenly - I took that literally. FedEx tracking predicted that the part would arrive on Friday, July 5, which made sense because the 4th was a holiday.
But I found out that the part had actually shipped on the 3rd, as the email had informed me. It didn't actually ship until the 4th - up until then, a "shipping label" had been created but it had not shipped. FedEx then revised their arrival date to Monday, 8 July.
That clearly wasn't satisfactory. So I went to my local parts distributor, Dayton Appliance Parts, a fifteen-minute drive from my house, and got the same part for $3 cheaper, plus without the $25 shipping fee that PartSelect had charged me for overnight-shipping-that-isn't-actually-overnight-shipping.
Once I had the part in hand, installation was a breeze. Two screws removed, pulled the striker, replaced the new part and the screws. Less than two minutes.
But no thanks to PartSelect.

The point of the lid switch is for the tub to stop spinning when the washer lid is opened. It is a safety precaution just in case someone decides to stick their hand inside the washer while the tub is spinning.

Defective lid latch - Cabrio Washer
The instructions that came with the part were worthless. Essentially, unplug, put in new part, plug it back in. I spent a considerable amount of time on the internet and finally found a video showing how to open the top. Unlike other models, it is held down by clamps in the back rather than clips in the front. Once finding this information the installation was simple. Remove the clamps and the back of the console, slide the top forward and lift, remove and replace the lock and reassemble. You don't even have to remove the hoses. Read more...
