The Door Spring is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It assists in balancing and supporting the door during opening and closing motions. 

Causes of a bad door spring can include metal fatigue from years of compression and extension during cycles. The spring can also become misshaped if over-tightened during maintenance or installation.

Symptoms of a bad door spring for a dishwasher include:  

  • Doors that slam shut too forcefully or rapidly
  • Difficulty smoothly opening or closing the door  
  • An imbalanced feeling when lifting or lowering the door

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, and Roper built-in dishwashers.
