The dryer door kept popping open. Debra S. • Peabody , MA • September 22, 2019
We ordered a door switch, dryer latch and strike plate. We realized that we only needed to replace the door switch. We watched a few videos and then replaced the switch. We couldn’t find a video for our model but they did give us a pretty good idea about what we needed to do. The hardest part was getting the original door switch out, all of the videos we watched showed us that it would pop out with a little pressure from a flat head screw driver, from the front of the switch. We could not get...

Part Number: WE1X1192
The Door Strike is an OEM part for GE dryers. This component is crucial for ensuring that the dryer door latches properly when closed. It interacts with the door catch mechanism to secure the door during operation, preventing it from opening unexpectedly, which ensures the dryer operates safely and efficiently.
Symptoms of a failing Door Strike include:
- The dryer door not staying closed during a cycle
- Difficulty in closing the dryer door or getting it to latch properly
- The dryer not starting because the door switch is not engaged
- Visible damage or wear on the door strike
Causes of a bad door strike can include wear and tear from regular use, physical damage from slamming the door or mishandling, and misalignment caused by repeated opening and closing.
This GE replacement part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.
Note: If the door catch is also needed, use part number WE1M1011.

The Door Latch is an OEM part for GE dryers. This part ensures the dryer door stays securely closed during operation, activating the safety switch to allow the dryer to operate. The latch mechanism engages with the door strike to lock the door, preventing it from opening while the dryer is running, which is essential for both safety and proper functioning of the appliance.
Causes for replacement can include normal wear and tear, accidental damage, or a misalignment that prevents the door from securely latching.
Symptoms of a bad Door Latch include:
- The dryer door doesn't stay closed during cycles.
- Difficulty in starting the dryer due to the door not activating the safety switch.
- Visible wear or damage to the latch mechanism.
This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Was making a squeaking/squealing on start up Gerald G. • Nashua , NH • March 20, 2016
My GE dryer from the late 80's/early 90's was squealing when it would start up, belt or bearing I was thinking. I found a manual online that covered my model and I watched a video on this site that showed me how to take it all apart, mine was a bit different but the principles were the same. I took it apart and added some quick-disconnects to 2 wires so next time I can take the front panel off easily. When I got to the bearing it looked worn but not bad so I cleaned it and put it back. ...
