This replacement door strike provides the solid catch point the latch/lock grabs so the appliance recognizes the door or lid is closed and can run safely. A worn, bent, or broken strike can interrupt operation. What it does

• Forms the fixed catch for the door/lid latch or lock
• Helps actuate the interlock/safety switch so a cycle can start
• Misalignment or damage can keep the door from latching and stop cycles
• Common symptoms: door/lid won't latch or stay closed, unit won't start, "Door/Lid" or "Lock" message, needing to hold the door shut, visible cracks or wear on the strike

• 1 strike

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Open the door/lid and remove the mounting screws securing the old strike; retain hardware if it is reused
• Position the new strike in the same orientation and tighten screws snugly; avoid over-tightening to prevent damage
• Close and open the door/lid to confirm smooth latch engagement, then run a brief test cycle

The Rear Panel is an OEM part for Whirlpool dryers. It is an outer protective panel located on the back interior of the dryer drum compartment and helps form the structural walls. The rear panel joins other interior pieces securely and assists with heat retention during the drying cycles. 

Causes of a bad rear panel can include impacts or accidents that damage the material, failure of mounting brackets over time, or general wear and tear cracks or breaks from repeated drum rotation and clothing.

Symptoms of a bad rear panel include:

• Visible bulges, cracks or holes in the rear drum walls
• Inability to properly secure interior components  
• Warm air escaping from gaps in the walls, reducing efficiency
• Possible lint or moisture leaks compromising insulation integrity

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore brands.
