Drum stopped turning loud 60 hz hum from motor James S. • Winchester , TN • November 03, 2018
The very easy diagnosis was motor seizure. Because the machine is about a decade old, I decided to renovate most of the guts. My DIY project included replacing the motor, blower, drum bearing, belt, and door hinge. The end result is a functional dryer with no left-over parts.

The Door Strike is an OEM part for Frigidaire dryers. It is a small, essential component that ensures the dryer door remains securely closed during operation. The door strike engages with the door catch to keep the door latched, allowing the dryer to operate efficiently and safely. Without a functioning door strike, the dryer may not start, or it could stop mid-cycle.
You should replace this door strike if it becomes damaged or worn out. Over time, the door strike can suffer from wear due to regular use, misalignment, or accidental impact, leading to issues with the dryer door latching properly.
Symptoms of a bad door strike include:
- The dryer door not staying closed
- The dryer not starting or stopping unexpectedly
- Difficulty in latching the dryer door
This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
