Frigidaire 131390000 Washer Lid Strike

Product Description

The FRIGIDAIRE 131390000 is a genuine OEM washer lid strike designed to interface with the lid switch assembly on top-load washing machines. Mounted to the washer lid, the strike contacts the switch on the cabinet frame when the lid is closed, sending the signal that allows the washer to start and run. When the lid is opened mid-cycle, the switch opens and halts operation, preventing unintended drum movement. This part is a direct replacement for part numbers 3204367 and 3204970 and is installed by appliance technicians or qualified service professionals.

The 131390000 lid strike is used in residential top-load washers where lid-position detection is handled by a mechanical strike-and-switch system. It mounts directly to the lid and aligns with the lid switch or latch assembly on the cabinet frame. This component is a common failure point when a washer will not start despite the lid appearing closed, or when the machine stops unexpectedly during a cycle. It is a genuine OEM part, ensuring proper fit and function within the original design specifications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a qualified appliance technician. Disconnect power to the washer at the outlet or circuit breaker before beginning any service work. The lid strike is generally secured to the lid with a screw or snap-fit clip; inspect the existing mounting points before removal. Verify alignment with the cabinet-mounted switch assembly after installation to confirm proper contact and lid-detection function before returning the unit to service.
