XPARTCO 131763302 Washer Door Striker
The XPARTCO 131763302 is an aftermarket replacement washer door striker compatible with a wide range of Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Tappan, and Westinghouse front-load washers — including the Frigidaire Affinity series and a broad set of GLTF, FAFW, FFFW, FFFS, ATF, ATFB, BLTF, CTF, CRTF, FCCW, FRFW, FTF, and FWFB models. The door striker (also called a door strike or door catch) attaches to the inside edge of the washer door and physically enters the lock mechanism on the front panel when the door closes. Once engaged, the strike is what the lock latches onto — and the strike also activates the door switch, signaling the control board that the door is safely closed and the washer can start.
When the striker fails — typically by cracking, chipping, or breaking off from repeated door closures — the washer will not start, will not lock the door, may leak water, or may fail to advance past the fill phase. Gray/red plastic construction, approximately 2.6" x 1.3". This is the current production part number that supersedes many earlier revisions. It directly replaces 131763302, 131763310, 131763300, 131763340, 131763330, 134456600, 134456602, 134456640, 1032664, 1564512, LP3310, PA66-GF25, WH10X10004, AP3580441, AP4508273, AH2378364, AH890617, EA2378364, EA890617, PD00000164, PS2378364, and PS890617. Often replaced together with the matching door lock assembly (131763256, sold separately). Installs in under 5 minutes — no tools required beyond a Phillips screwdriver.

Note: The door striker (131763302) and the door lock assembly (131763256) are two separate components that work together — the striker enters the lock, and the lock grips the striker. If both are worn or one has caused damage to the other, replacing them together as a matched set ensures reliable door locking and prevents premature wear on the new part. Always verify your model number before ordering.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting — Quick Toolless Replacement Disconnect power before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Open the washer door — if the door is stuck locked because of a failed lock, use a putty knife to release the manual override latch through the bottom service opening. Locate the old door striker on the inside edge of the washer door. It's typically secured by a single Phillips screw. Unscrew the mounting screw and remove the old striker. If the striker has broken off inside the lock mechanism on the front panel, remove any broken pieces from the lock before proceeding — leaving debris in the lock will damage the new striker and prevent proper engagement. Take the new 131763302 striker and align it with the mounting hole in the same direction and orientation as the old one — installing it backwards will prevent the lock from engaging. Secure the new striker with the Phillips mounting screw. Close the door and confirm the striker enters the lock slot smoothly. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the door locks properly and the washer starts. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, putty knife (for stuck doors), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the door striker and the door lock assembly?
These are two separate parts that work together as a system to lock the washer door. The door striker (131763302) is the plastic part attached to the inside edge of the washer door — when the door closes, the striker enters the lock. The door lock assembly (131763256) is the assembly mounted on the front panel just inside the door opening — it contains the latching mechanism that grips the striker and the electrical switch that tells the control board the door is closed. If the striker is broken, the lock has nothing to grip and the washer won't start. If the lock is broken, the striker can still enter the slot but the lock won't hold it or send the right signal. Both can fail independently, and often wear together — many repairs call for replacing both at the same time.
What is the difference between 131763302 and the older 131763310 or 131763300?
All are the same door striker across production revisions. 131763300 was the original OEM part number, 131763310 and 131763340 were mid-generation revisions, and 131763302 is the current OEM production version. Frigidaire also uses 134456600, 134456602, and 134456640 as additional catalog references for the same part. All are physically and functionally interchangeable — if your washer's parts diagram shows any of these numbers, the 131763302 is the correct current replacement, and this listing covers all of them.
My washer won't start and the door seems to close normally — could this be the striker?
Yes, this is one of the most common symptoms of a failed door striker on Frigidaire-platform front-load washers. Even though the door appears to close, if the striker has cracked or worn down, it may not physically engage the lock or activate the door switch correctly. Visually inspect the striker on the inside edge of the door — if it's broken, missing, chipped, or its tab has worn down, replacement is straightforward. Also inspect the lock opening on the front panel: if there are broken plastic pieces inside from the old striker, they need to be removed before the new striker can seat properly.
Do I really only need a Phillips screwdriver for this repair?
Correct — the 131763302 striker is held in place by a single Phillips mounting screw on the inside edge of the washer door. Remove the old striker, install the new one in the same orientation, and tighten the screw. The whole replacement typically takes under 5 minutes once you have the new part in hand. Just make sure to install it in the correct direction — installing the striker backwards will prevent the lock from engaging when the door closes.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Frigidaire/Electrolux OEM part, but is manufactured from durable plastic to match the dimensions (approximately 2.6" x 1.3"), mounting configuration, and lock-engagement function of the original 131763302 door striker used in compatible Frigidaire, Electrolux, Kenmore, Crosley, and related front-load washers.
