Install Tips (Professional Service Recommended)
- Disconnect power and water; remove the top and rear covers. Take off the belt and unplug the motor.
- Separate inner/outer tubs (follow your model’s service flow). Record bolt locations and torque values.
- Remove the old flange; clean all mating surfaces and the bore. Inspect the spider arm.
- Install DC97‑16509B; tighten DC60‑40137A bolts in a criss‑cross pattern in stages.

FAQ
- How do I confirm compatibility?
- Match the part number on your old part or in your service manual. If unsure, contact us with your washer model and a photo of the old part.
- Can I replace only the flange?
- If the spider arm, bearings, or seal show wear/corrosion, inspect and replace as needed to avoid a second teardown soon after.
- Why apply anti‑rust coating?
- Moisture and detergents can accelerate corrosion. A light protective film can extend service life.
Support
30‑day hassle‑free support (unused/undamaged). Before installing, compare appearance and part numbers; keep photos of the process for warranty verification.

I thought I would need a service tech, but replacing the door strike did the trick. It clipped right in and aligned with the latch perfectly. Great quality for the price — much sturdier than I expected. Saved time and money!

This door strike fit my Frigidaire washer perfectly. My machine had stopped locking properly and was throwing error codes — this simple part fixed everything. Installed it in under 5 minutes and now the washer runs like new. Highly recommended!
