Frigidaire Washer FTF2140FE1 Lid or door will not open

The Door Handle is an OEM component for Frigidaire front-load washing machines. It serves as the central access point for loading and unloading clothes. The door handle is designed to withstand years of use with a durable grasp surface for wet hands. 

Symptoms of a bad door handle include:

• Looseness, wobbling, or detachment when held
• Chipped or cracked material on the handle surface
• Difficulty opening and closing the washer door 

Causes of failure can be regular heavy use of the handle over many cycles of washing. Natural wear and tear as well as occasional impacts also put stress on the handle mechanism.

This Frigidaire OEM part is also compatible with some Electrolux and Kenmore front-load washer models.

The Door Strike is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. It is a critical component that interacts with the door latch, securing the washing machine door during operation. This ensures that the door remains closed and locked throughout the washing cycle, preventing water leaks and maintaining the safety and integrity of the appliance. 

Symptoms of a bad Door Strike include:

• The washing machine door not closing or locking properly,
• The washer not starting due to the door not registering as closed,
• Visible signs of damage or wear on the strike, such as cracking or deformation.

Causes of door strike failure typically involve physical damage from forceful closing of the washer door, general wear from repeated use, or material fatigue.

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
