When the strike breaks, cracks, or snaps off entirely, the lock solenoid has nothing to engage, the control board never receives the lid-closed signal, and the washer refuses to run. \u003cstrong\u003e⚡ High-wear plastic component on Whirlpool top-load washers — breaks from repeated lid slamming or normal fatigue over time.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePart W11513250\u003c\/strong\u003e is the genuine OEM replacement lid lock strike that restores full lid lock engagement immediately — direct fit, no tools required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e❓ Is This the Right Part?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the correct fix if ALL of the following are true:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e✔ Washer powers on and control panel responds normally\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e✔ The lid lock assembly itself is intact and functioning — only the strike tab is broken\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e✔ No error codes other than lid lock \/ lid open codes present\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e✔ ONLY problem is the plastic strike tab on the lid is cracked, broken, or missing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot sure? \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/contact\"\u003eSend us your model number\u003c\/a\u003e — we'll confirm before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e🔧 Common Symptoms\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWasher won’t start — lid lock error code displayed (F5E2, F5E3, or similar)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWasher stops mid-cycle as if the lid was opened\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLid lock assembly clicks but washer still won’t run — strike not engaging the solenoid\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVisible crack, break, or missing plastic tab on the underside of the lid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✔ If these symptoms match and the strike tab is visibly damaged, this is the confirmed failure point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✔ In most cases, snapping in the new W11513250 strike restores full lid lock operation immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e📦 Part Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e W11513250\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Washer Lid Lock Strike — plastic tab mounted to the lid that engages the lid lock solenoid assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReplaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e W10820036, W10820036A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrands:\u003c\/strong\u003e Whirlpool, Maytag, Amana, Kenmore\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sold individually.

A damaged lock assembly will break a new strike within weeks. Inspect the lock body for cracks or loose mounting before installing W11513250 — replacing both at the same time avoids a repeat repair.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e⚙️ Installation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkill Level: EASY — 2–5 minutes.\u003c\/strong\u003e No tools required and no need to disconnect power for this repair. Open the washer lid and locate the broken strike tab on the underside. The new W11513250 snaps directly into the mounting slot on the lid — align the tabs and press firmly until it clicks into place. Close the lid and run a test cycle to confirm the lid lock engages and the washer starts normally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e✓ Compatible Models\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConfirmed compatible with Whirlpool, Maytag, and Amana top-load washer models using the W10820036 lid lock strike platform. \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/contact\"\u003eContact us to verify your model number\u003c\/a\u003e before ordering — model compatibility data will be updated as confirmed fitment is added.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e💡 Pro Tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pro-tip\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003eClose the Lid Gently — Lid Strikes Break from Impact, Not Wear:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n  The W11513250 lid lock strike is a plastic component designed for normal lid closure — it is not rated for repeated slamming. The most common cause of strike failure is the lid being dropped rather than lowered. After installing the new strike, make a habit of lowering the lid gently until it clicks — this single change can extend the life of the strike from months to years.\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Whirlpool","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52858319864097,"sku":"W11513250","price":17.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0897\/7783\/2225\/files\/Whirlpool_Washer_Lid_Lock_Strike_W11513250_Fix_Lid_Lock_Not_Engaging.png?v=1781642479","url":"https:\/\/xpartsupply.com\/products\/w11513250-washer-lid-lock-strike","provider":"XPart Supply Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
