Customer Questions and Answers for Spring Kit by Whirlpool

This factory spring kit restores the designed tension and return action in the affected assembly so moving parts operate smoothly, stay in position, and wear evenly over time.

• Provides the correct counterforce to position or balance components
• Maintains steady tension to prevent drift, slamming, or misalignment
• Helps reduce squeaks, chatter, or uneven movement from fatigued springs
• Typical signs of failure: weak return, inconsistent movement, excess noise, or visible spring damage

• Disconnect power; shut off water or gas before servicing
• Wear eye protection—springs are under tension
• Note original spring anchor points and replace all springs in the kit as a set
• Use appropriate pliers or a hook tool; verify smooth operation before reassembly
