The Door Spring Link is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dishwashers. This component connects the door spring to the dishwasher door, helping to balance the door's weight and assist in its smooth opening and closing. The door spring link ensures that the door remains properly tensioned, facilitating ease of use and preventing it from dropping open too quickly.

Symptoms of a bad Door Spring Link include:

  • The dishwasher door dropping open too quickly
  • Difficulty in opening or closing the door smoothly
  • A sagging door that does not stay in place
  • Unusual noises when opening or closing the door

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

Answer

Jim, The door link and door springs are the least likely issue at this point,as is the door gasket. You need to remove the lower spray arm, and check all the jet holes for clogs and debris, and the ends and sides for a hairline crack, Check for the proper water level( after the initial fill and a 5 minute wash cycle, the water leve should be halfway up to slighty above the top of the heat element. Check the door hinges and hinge pins on the frame for being bent. Thanks and Good Luck
