The Spring is an OEM part for Whirlpool ranges. This part provides the necessary tension to open and close the oven door smoothly. The spring ensures that the door stays securely shut during cooking and opens effortlessly when needed, contributing to the overall functionality and safety of the range.
Causes of a bad range door spring can include wear and tear over time, exposure to high temperatures, or damage from accidental impacts.
Symptoms of a bad range door spring include:
- The oven door not staying closed
- Difficulty in opening or closing the door
- Uneven or incomplete sealing of the door
- A door that feels loose or unstable
This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.
