Common Symptoms
- Door does not latch or lock reliably

Check Before Replacing
- With the washer unplugged, inspect the strike for cracks, a broken cross-member, bending, looseness, or abnormal wear.
- Check that the door closes evenly and that the strike enters the door-lock opening without obvious interference.
- Inspect the mating door latch/lock area for visible damage or obstruction.
- If the strike appears intact, verify that the issue is not caused by door sag, hinge misalignment, or a damaged latch before replacing the strike.
