XPARTCO W11165546 Washer Water Inlet Valve
The XPARTCO W11165546 is an aftermarket replacement washer water inlet valve assembly compatible with Maytag Bravos XL, Whirlpool Cabrio, Kenmore 700-series, and related Whirlpool-platform HE top-load washers. This 4-solenoid assembly controls the flow of hot and cold water from the household supply lines into the washer tub and dispenser compartments. It includes an integrated thermistor on the center outlet that monitors incoming water temperature and communicates it to the control board so the washer can achieve the correct wash temperature. When the valve fails — or when a single solenoid coil burns out — the washer may not fill, fill too slowly, fill with the wrong temperature, overfill, or display error codes F8E1, LF, or LO FL.
Rated 120V, 60Hz, with 2 inlet ports and 3 outlet ports, this assembly measures 5-3/8"L x 4-1/4"W x 3"H. The valve body may be blue or green in color depending on production run — both are functionally identical. It is compatible with 1/2" ID supply hoses. It directly replaces W10599423, W10758828, W10839828, W11096267, W11165546VP, WV5546, 33090105, 4545980, AP6284346, EAP12348013, PD00037668, and PS12348013. Installs in 15–25 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off both the hot and cold water supply valves before beginning. Pull the washer away from the wall to access the back panel. The water inlet valve is mounted on the upper rear of the washer. Photograph all wire harness connections and hose routing before disconnecting. Disconnect the two external supply hoses from the valve inlet ports using pliers to loosen any stuck connections. Disconnect the internal outlet hoses by squeezing the retaining clips and pulling free. Disconnect the wiring harness connectors from all solenoid coils and the thermistor. Unscrew the mounting hardware and remove the old valve. Install the new W11165546 valve in the same position, reconnect all internal hoses, wire harnesses, and external supply hoses in the same positions as documented. Restore water supply and power, then run a fill cycle to verify normal filling and check for leaks. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, channel-lock pliers for stubborn hose connections.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do error codes F8E1, LF, and LO FL mean on Maytag and Whirlpool washers?
F8E1 (also displayed as LF or LO FL on some models) indicates a long fill fault — the washer was unable to fill to the required water level within the expected time. The most common causes are a failed water inlet valve (solenoid coil burned out or valve seat clogged), low household water pressure, or kinked supply hoses. Before replacing the valve, confirm both supply valves are fully open, the supply hoses are not kinked, and household water pressure is adequate. If all supply conditions are good and the error persists, the water inlet valve is the most likely cause.
What is the difference between W11165546 and W11096267?
These are the same water inlet valve assembly. W11096267 was an earlier version, and W11165546 is the current updated part number. The W10599423 and W10758828 are also cross-references to earlier versions of this same valve. The W11165546VP is the Whirlpool factory-packaged version. All of these are covered by this aftermarket replacement.
Why does this valve have 4 solenoids?
Modern HE top-load washers like the Maytag Bravos XL and Whirlpool Cabrio use multiple water paths for different wash functions — hot water inlet, cold water inlet, a bleach dispenser port, and a fabric softener/recirculation port. Each path is controlled by its own independent solenoid coil on the same valve assembly. This allows the control board to independently open any combination of ports needed for a given cycle phase. When any single solenoid coil fails, only the function controlled by that coil is affected — which is why the washer might fill normally with cold water but not hot, or fail to activate only one dispenser.
Does the valve color (blue vs green) matter?
No — the blue and green valve body colors are simply the result of different production runs at the factory. Both colors are the same part number (W11165546) with identical electrical specifications, port configuration, thermistor, and dimensions. Either color will function correctly in your washer. There is no functional difference between the two.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured with 4 solenoid coils and an integrated thermistor to match the electrical specifications and port configuration of the original W11165546 water inlet valve assembly.

XPARTCO MFG63099101 Washer Door Strike (Door Lock Hook)
The XPARTCO MFG63099101 is an aftermarket replacement washer door strike — also called a door lock hook or door latch hook — compatible with a wide range of LG front-load washers and Kenmore 796-series washing machines. The door strike is the metal hook component mounted on the inside edge of the washer door. When the door closes, the hook enters the door lock switch on the front panel and engages the electromagnetic lock mechanism, signaling the control board that the door is closed and locking it for safe operation during wash and spin cycles. Without an intact door strike, the lock can't grip anything, and the washer will not start.
When the strike breaks — typically from repeated use, sudden impact, or stress over thousands of door cycles — the washer will not start, may stop mid-cycle, may display DE1 or DE2 error codes, leak water around the door, or fail to lock altogether. It directly replaces MFG63099101, AGF77417823, AP5787149, 2759645, PS8752721, EAP8752721, and PD00046132. Important: replacing the strike requires removing the inside door panel to access the hook — note that the inner glass insert is loose during disassembly and must be handled carefully. Often replaced alongside the matching door lock switch (EBF61315802, sold separately). Installs in 15–20 minutes with basic hand tools.

The XPARTCO MFG63099101 Washer Door Strike fixes LG and Kenmore 796-series front-load washers where the door won't lock, won't start, stops mid-cycle, displays DE1 or DE2 errors, or leaks at the door. Metal hook attaches to the inside of the washer door — engages the lock switch when the door closes. Replaces MFG63099101, AGF77417823, AP5787149, 2759645, PS8752721, EAP8752721, PD00046132. Often paired with the door lock switch (EBF61315802, sold separately).

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting — Don't Drop the Inner Glass Disconnect power before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Open the washer door — if the door is stuck locked because of a broken strike, use a putty knife to pry the white latch on the door lock through the bottom service opening to release the door. With the door open, locate the screws around the perimeter of the inner door panel. Remove the screws to release the inner door panel from the outer frame. Important: the inner glass insert is loose once the panel is unscrewed — support the glass with one hand as you pry the panel away to prevent it from falling out and breaking. Note the orientation of the old door strike (the direction it points and how it's seated). Use needle-nose pliers or tweezers to pull out the retaining pin holding the old strike in place, then remove the broken strike. Install the new MFG63099101 strike in the same direction and orientation as the old one — installing it backwards will prevent the lock from engaging. Reinsert the retaining pin to secure it. Carefully reposition the glass insert into the door, reinstall the inner door panel, and tighten the screws. Restore power and run a test cycle to confirm the door locks properly and there are no leaks. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, needle-nose pliers or tweezers, putty knife (for stuck doors), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the door strike and the door lock switch?
These are two separate parts that work together to lock the washer door. The door strike (MFG63099101) is the metal hook attached to the inside edge of the washer door — when the door closes, the hook is what physically enters the lock assembly. The door lock switch (EBF61315802) is the assembly mounted on the front panel just inside the door opening — it contains the electromagnetic mechanism that grips and locks the strike, and the electrical sensor that tells the control board the door is closed. If the strike is broken, the lock has nothing to grip and the washer won't start. If the switch is broken, the strike can still enter the slot but the lock won't engage or send the right signal. Both can fail independently, and often wear together — many repairs call for replacing both at the same time.
My washer door is stuck closed — how do I get it open to install this?
If the door is stuck in the locked position because the existing strike has broken off inside the lock or the lock won't release, you can use a putty knife or thin flat tool to manually release the door lock through the bottom service opening of the washer. Reach in through the access panel at the lower front of the unit and locate the white plastic latch on the back of the door lock assembly — gently push or pry it to release the mechanism. The door should then open. Once open, you can proceed with the strike installation. Always disconnect power from the washer first.
The number on my old strike doesn't match — is it still compatible?
In many cases, yes. LG sometimes prints production batch codes on door strikes that look like part numbers but don't match the official OEM part number. As long as your washer's parts diagram lists MFG63099101 (or one of its cross-references: AGF77417823, AP5787149, 2759645, PS8752721, EAP8752721, PD00046132), this strike is the correct fit. If you're unsure, contact our support team with your washer model number and we'll verify before you order.
Should I replace the door lock switch (EBF61315802) at the same time?
Not always, but often. The strike and the lock switch work together as a pair — if one is worn, the other has typically experienced the same load over thousands of cycles and is approaching the end of its service life. When a broken strike is the cause of the failure, examine the lock switch when the panel is open: if the lock mechanism shows visible wear, doesn't grip the new strike firmly, or has corroded contacts, replace it at the same time. Since the door is already partially disassembled and you have the washer apart, doing both at once saves a second repair session.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured from durable metal to match the dimensions, mounting configuration, and lock-engagement function of the original MFG63099101 door strike used in compatible LG and Kenmore 796-series front-load washers.

XPARTCO EBF61315802 Washer Door Lock Switch
The XPARTCO EBF61315802 is an aftermarket replacement washer door lock switch assembly compatible with a wide range of LG front-load washers and Kenmore 796-series front-load washing machines. The door lock switch is mounted on the front panel just inside the door opening — when the door is closed, the door's striker engages the lock and the switch reports back to the control board that the door is securely closed. The lock then engages electromagnetically to physically prevent the door from being opened during the wash and spin cycles, eliminating the risk of water leaks and protecting the user from the high-speed spinning drum.
When this part fails, the washer will not start (since the control board can't confirm the door is locked), will stop mid-cycle, may display DE1 or DE2 error codes, may not actually lock the door (allowing it to open during a cycle), or may leak water around the door. Rated 125V AC, 60Hz, with a 3-pin connector. It directly replaces EBF62534401, AP5672154, AP6992889, PS7792232, PS16223547, EAP7792232, 2667085, and PD00008063. Often replaced alongside the door lock strike (MFG63099101, sold separately), which is the matching component on the door itself. Installs in 15–20 minutes with basic hand tools — no full front panel removal needed on most models.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. On most LG and Kenmore front-load models, you can replace the door lock switch without removing the whole front panel — a much faster repair than expected. Open the washer door (if the door is stuck locked, use a putty knife to pry the white latch on the door lock assembly through the bottom service opening, then open the door). Remove the spring-loaded wire clamp securing the door boot to the front panel — needle-nose pliers help here. Peel back the rubber door boot from the front panel to expose the rear of the door lock switch. Remove the 2 Phillips screws holding the switch to the front panel. Reach in and pull the switch out through the boot opening. Disconnect the wire harness from the old switch. Connect the wire harness to the new EBF61315802, position it in place, and secure with the 2 mounting screws. Press the rubber door boot back fully into the groove at the front panel — this is the trickiest part of the install (an extra pair of hands helps). Reinstall the spring-loaded wire clamp around the boot to secure it. Restore power and test by closing the door and starting a cycle. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, putty knife (for stuck doors), work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do error codes DE1 and DE2 mean on LG washers?
DE (Door Error) codes on LG front-load washers indicate the control board cannot confirm the door is properly closed and locked. DE1 typically appears when the door switch reports the door as open at the start of a cycle, and DE2 typically appears when the door signal is lost during a cycle. Both can be caused by a failed door lock switch, a worn or broken door lock strike (MFG63099101) on the door itself, or a damaged wiring harness. Replacing the EBF61315802 door lock switch resolves these codes when the switch is the cause; if the codes return after replacement, the strike on the door or the harness should be inspected next.
Do I need to replace the door lock strike (MFG63099101) too?
Not always, but often. The door lock strike is the matching component mounted on the door itself — it's the part that the switch's electromagnetic lock grips when the door closes. If the strike is worn, cracked, or its plastic teeth are broken, the new switch won't lock reliably even if it's working perfectly. Inspect the strike on the door for visible damage before replacing just the switch. Many repair scenarios call for replacing both at the same time, since both wear together and the parts complement each other.
My washer door is stuck closed — how do I get it open to install this?
If the door is stuck in the locked position because the existing switch has failed, you can use a putty knife or thin flat tool to manually release the door lock through the bottom service opening of the washer. Reach in through the access panel at the lower front of the unit and locate the white plastic latch on the back of the door lock assembly — gently push or pry it to release the mechanism. The door should then open. Once open, you can proceed with the installation. Always disconnect power from the washer before attempting this.
Do I really not need to remove the front panel?
Correct — on most LG and Kenmore front-load models, you can replace the door lock switch by working through the door opening after pulling back the rubber door boot. This avoids the much more involved process of removing the entire front panel. The trickiest part of the repair is pressing the rubber door boot back into its groove on the front panel after the switch is installed — an extra pair of hands is helpful for this step. The whole repair typically takes 15–20 minutes.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications (125V AC, 60Hz), 3-pin connector configuration, electromagnetic lock function, and dimensions of the original EBF61315802 door lock switch used in compatible LG and Kenmore 796-series front-load washers.

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.

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.

XPARTCO WH12X10334 Washer Lid Switch with Wire Harness
The XPARTCO WH12X10334 is an aftermarket replacement washer lid switch assembly with wire harness compatible with select GE, Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore top-load washers — including the GTWN4250, GCWN4950, GTW180, GTWN2800, GTWN5550, GTUP270, and HSWP1000 series. The lid switch is a magnetic switch mounted near the lid hinge that detects whether the washer lid is open or closed. A magnet attached to the lid activates the switch when the lid closes — a small pin on the switch presses against an internal lever to signal the control board that it is safe to agitate or spin. This safety mechanism prevents the washer from running with the lid open.
When the lid switch fails, the washer may not start, may fill with water but not proceed to the wash cycle, may stop mid-cycle, may not spin or agitate even with the lid closed, or may display lid-related error codes on models with digital displays. This assembly includes the switch and attached wire harness. It directly replaces WH12X10141, AP3968471, 1256927, AH1482372, EA1482372, and PS1482372. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. The lid switch is located near the lid hinge area at the top of the washer cabinet. Use a putty knife to release the spring clips along the front edge of the top panel (or console, depending on model), then lift the top panel to access the switch from underneath. Locate the lid switch — it is typically mounted near the hinge or under the console. Photograph the wire connections before disconnecting. Disconnect the wire harness connector, or if your model requires it, cut and splice the wires using wire strippers and crimpers. Remove the mounting screws (typically a 1/4" nut driver) and remove the old switch. Install the new WH12X10334 switch in the same position, secure the mounting screws, and reconnect or re-splice the wire harness. Reinstall the top panel by aligning and pressing down until the spring clips engage. Restore power and test by closing the lid and starting a cycle to confirm the washer agitates and spins normally. You can test the old switch's continuity with a multimeter before removal to confirm it has failed. Tools needed: Putty knife, 1/4" nut driver, wire strippers, crimpers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the washer lid switch do?
The lid switch is a safety device that detects whether the washer lid is open or closed. A magnet attached to the underside of the lid activates the switch when the lid closes, which presses a small pin against an internal lever to send a signal to the control board confirming the lid is securely shut. The washer's control board uses this signal to allow agitation and spin — both of which are blocked whenever the lid is detected as open, as a safety measure to prevent injury from a spinning or moving basket.
My washer fills with water but won't start the wash cycle — is it the lid switch?
Yes — this is one of the most common lid switch failure symptoms. The washer is able to complete the fill phase because filling is typically not gated by the lid switch, but the agitation and spin phases require lid switch confirmation that the lid is closed. If the switch has failed and is not properly signaling lid closure, the washer fills normally but then stalls before agitating. According to repair technicians, when a washer fills and drains but does not agitate or spin, the lid switch is the first part that should be checked and is often the cause.
How do I test if the lid switch has failed?
Unplug the washer and access the switch as described in the installation notes. Disconnect the wire harness and set your multimeter to continuity or resistance mode. With the lid closed and the magnet engaging the switch pin, a working switch should show closed continuity. With the lid open (pin released), the switch should show open continuity. If the switch shows the same reading (either always open or always closed) regardless of lid position, the switch has failed and needs replacement.
Could a bad lid switch cause water filling and draining issues too?
In some specific cases, yes — some owners have reported resolving combinations of fill, drain, and spin issues by ultimately tracing the root cause back to a faulty lid switch, even after replacing other components like the water level pressure switch or control board. If you've already addressed other suspected causes for irregular cycle behavior and the symptoms persist, testing or replacing the lid switch is a low-cost troubleshooting step worth trying before assuming a major component (like the control board) needs replacement.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine GE OEM part, but is manufactured to match the magnetic switch design and wire harness configuration of the original WH12X10334 lid switch assembly.

XPARTCO DC97-16350U Washer Suspension Rod Kit (Set of 4)
The XPARTCO DC97-16350U is an aftermarket replacement washer suspension rod kit (set of 4) compatible with a wide range of Samsung top-load washers in the WA40, WA41, WA42, WA44, WA45, WA49, and WA50 series. The suspension rods are spring-loaded shock-absorbing rods that connect the outer washer tub to the top corners of the cabinet frame, suspending the tub and dampening the vibrations generated during agitation and high-speed spin cycles. When one or more rods lose tension, break, or degrade, the tub swings off-center and strikes the cabinet walls — causing violent shaking, loud banging, error code dc (out of balance), UE imbalance errors, and progressive damage to the machine.
Each rod measures 26.4–26.5 inches in overall length and 1-1/4 inches in diameter, constructed from spring steel with plastic end caps. The kit includes all 4 suspension rods — always replace all four at the same time since they wear at the same rate. It directly replaces DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, DC97-16350E, DC97-16350C, DC97-16350D, DC97-16350K, DC97-05280W, 4962798, AP6884450, EAP12720841, PS12720841, and PD00065434. Wear gloves during installation — the rods are coated with grease. Installs in 20–30 minutes — no special tools required.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO DC97-16350U Washer Suspension Rod Kit fixes Samsung top-load washers that vibrate violently, bang loudly, walk across the floor, or display dc or UE imbalance error codes during spin.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Wear Gloves Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves throughout — the suspension rods are coated with grease. Remove the lid and the top panel (typically secured by screws under the lid hinge covers and at the rear corners). With the top panel removed, the four suspension rods are visible at the corners, each running from a mounting point on the tub rim up to a hook or bracket at the top corners of the cabinet frame. Note the orientation and attachment method of each rod before removing. Unhook the top of each rod from the cabinet bracket and lift the bottom cup off the tub mounting pin. Install each new DC97-16350U rod by seating the bottom cup onto the tub mounting pin and hooking the top over the cabinet bracket. Replace all four rods before reassembling. Reinstall the top panel and lid, restore power and water, and run a spin cycle to verify smooth, quiet, centered operation. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver; no special tools required for the rods themselves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between DC97-16350U and DC97-16350V?
Both are Samsung top-load washer suspension rods, but they are different lengths for different washer capacity generations. The DC97-16350U is approximately 26.4–26.5 inches long and is used on mid-capacity Samsung WA40 through WA50 series washers. The DC97-16350V is approximately 27.5 inches long and is used on larger-capacity WA48 through WA54 series washers. Using the wrong length rod causes the tub to sit at the wrong height inside the cabinet, which can cause new imbalance issues. Always measure your existing rods or verify your model number before ordering.
Why must I replace all 4 rods instead of just the broken one?
All four suspension rods experience the same amount of wear over the same number of wash cycles. When one rod fails, the remaining three have experienced the same stress and fatigue and are likely to fail soon after. Replacing only the broken rod leaves three worn rods supporting the tub unevenly — this can cause continued vibration, accelerate wear on the new rod, and require a second repair shortly after. Replacing all four at the same time ensures even tub support, fully resolves the imbalance, and prevents a repeat repair.
Do DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, and DC97-16350E all cross to the DC97-16350U?
Yes — DC97-16350S, DC97-16350T, DC97-16350E, DC97-16350C, and DC97-16350D are all cross-reference part numbers for the same Samsung suspension rod assembly used across different production runs of the same washer series. Samsung updates part number suffixes during production revisions. All of these numbers have the same 26.4–26.5" length and are interchangeable with the DC97-16350U.
What do error codes dc and UE mean on Samsung washers?
Error code dc on Samsung top-load washers indicates the machine has detected an out-of-balance condition and stopped spinning to prevent damage. Error code UE indicates an unbalanced load that the washer cannot self-correct by redistributing. Both codes can be caused by an overloaded or unevenly distributed laundry load — but if the errors occur consistently even with normal, balanced loads, worn or broken suspension rods are the most common mechanical cause. Replacing the rod kit resolves these errors in most cases.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement kit built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured from spring steel with plastic end caps to match the length and spring tension of the original DC97-16350U suspension rods.

XPARTCO W10820036 Washer / Dryer Door Switch
The XPARTCO W10820036 is an aftermarket replacement door switch used on select Whirlpool-built combination washer/dryer units. This switch is a safety interlock: it detects whether the door is fully closed and latched, and it signals the control board that it is safe to run the motor, heater, and water valves. On a combo unit, this single interlock typically governs both the wash and dry portions of the cycle, since both functions share the same drum and door. If the switch fails to detect a closed door — or fails electrically even when the door is closed properly — the control will refuse to start the cycle, or will stop mid-cycle if the switch drops out while running.
Typical failure modes for a part like this include a cracked or worn switch lever that no longer depresses fully when the door closes, internal contacts that have pitted or burned out from years of cycling, and a housing that has come loose from its mounting bracket so the plunger no longer lines up with the door strike. A functioning door switch should click firmly when the door closes and should show continuity across its terminals only when the lever is pressed.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO W10820036 Washer/Dryer Door Switch is a door safety interlock switch for select Whirlpool-built combination washer/dryer units. It fixes units that won't start with the door closed, stop mid-cycle, or fail to register the door as closed even when it's latched properly. Note: this listing was built from general parts knowledge because current supplier and cross-reference data was not available at build time — see the note below before publishing.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Washer/dryer combo won't start even though the door is fully closed
Cycle stops partway through, as if the door had been opened
Door doesn't feel like it's "clicking" or latching the way it used to
Console shows a door-related error or won't advance past the door-closed step
Intermittent operation — sometimes starts, sometimes doesn't, depending on how the door is closed
Visibly cracked, loose, or broken switch housing or lever

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug The Unit Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. Access to the door switch on combo units is typically through the front or top control panel — photograph the wiring harness before disconnecting it so you can match it exactly on reassembly. Confirm the new switch's lever aligns with the door strike before securing the mounting screws, and test for a firm, positive click when the door closes before restoring power and running a cycle. If your unit's service manual is available, follow its specific access and mounting steps rather than relying solely on general guidance.
Frequently Asked Questions
My combo unit won't start. Is this definitely the door switch?
It's one of the most common causes when a unit refuses to start with the door visibly closed. Before replacing the switch, confirm the door is latching fully and that nothing (a stray sock, a bent strike bracket) is preventing it from closing all the way. If the door latches firmly but the unit still won't start, or a multimeter shows no continuity across the switch terminals when the lever is pressed, the switch itself is the likely culprit.
Does this switch control both the washer and dryer functions?
On combination washer/dryer units, yes — a single door and drum typically serve both functions, so one door switch acts as the safety interlock for both the wash and dry portions of the cycle.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the mounting, switching function, and door-interlock behavior of the original W10820036 switch used in compatible combination washer/dryer units.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves Disconnect power before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Open the washer lid and locate the lid latch strike on the underside of the lid — it's the small plastic peg that drops into the lock slot when the lid is closed. To remove the old latch strike: rotate it counterclockwise until the retaining tab breaks free and pulls back, then pull the old latch strike straight out. To install the new W11457841: align it with the mounting hole in the same orientation as the old one, and rotate clockwise until you hear or feel the retainer tab click into place. Close the lid and confirm the latch strike engages the lock slot properly. Restore power, start a test cycle, and confirm the lid locks and the washer begins normal operation. Tools needed: work gloves only — no tools required for the strike itself.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the lid strike, lid lock, and lid switch?
These three components work together as a safety system. The lid latch strike (W11457841) is the small plastic peg attached to the underside of the lid that physically enters the lock slot when the lid closes. The lid lock is the mechanism in the washer cabinet that grips the strike and physically locks the lid closed during the spin cycle. The lid switch is the electrical sensor inside the lock assembly that signals the control board when the strike is engaged. If the strike is broken or missing, none of the three can do their job — even if the lock and switch are working perfectly. Replacing just the strike often resolves "won't start" issues without needing to replace the more expensive lock assembly.
What is the difference between W11457841 and W11091027?
These are the same lid latch strike across production revisions. W11091027 was the earlier OEM part number, and W11457841 is the current part number that superseded it. Both are physically and functionally identical — if your washer's parts diagram shows W11091027, the W11457841 is the correct current replacement, and this aftermarket part covers both numbers.
My washer won't start and the lid seems to close normally — could this be the strike?
Yes, this is one of the most common symptoms of lid latch strike failure on compatible Whirlpool and Maytag washers. Even though the lid appears to close, if the strike has cracked or worn down it may not physically engage the lock or activate the switch correctly. Visually inspect the latch strike on the underside of the lid — if it's broken, missing, or chipped, replacement is straightforward. If the latch strike looks intact and the washer still won't start, the lid lock assembly itself or the wiring harness may need attention.
Do I really not need any tools to install this?
Correct — the W11457841 lid latch strike uses a twist-in design with no screws or hardware. To remove the old latch strike, rotate it counterclockwise until the internal retaining tab breaks free, then pull it out. To install the new one, push it into the mounting hole and twist clockwise until it clicks into place. The whole replacement typically takes under 5 minutes once you have the new part in hand. Work gloves are recommended to protect your hands while gripping the small plastic part, but no other tools are needed.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, but is manufactured to match the dimensions, twist-in mounting design, and lid switch activation function of the original W11457841 lid latch strike used in compatible Whirlpool, Maytag, and Kenmore HE top-load washers.
