Gibson Refrigerator Spring Parts

This torsion spring mounts in the dispenser to return the ice chute door/flapper to the closed position after dispensing. Replacing a weak or broken spring helps stop warm air leaks, frost, and ice clumping in the chute.

• Provides the closing force for the dispenser ice door
• Helps seal the ice chute to reduce frost and moisture intrusion
• Typical symptoms: ice door won't close fully, frost/ice buildup around the chute, cubes dropping after dispensing, or air leakage at the dispenser
• Replace if the spring is broken, deformed, or has lost tension

• Disconnect power before servicing; shut off water if working near the dispenser area
• Remove dispenser trim/bezel and control panel to access the ice door assembly; support wiring harnesses
• Note spring orientation and preload before removal; install the new spring on the same hinge posts in the same direction
• Manually cycle the flapper to ensure smooth return and a full seal before reassembly

This small but critical actuator spring restores return tension in a refrigerator's actuator mechanism, helping the lever reset to neutral after use so controls feel responsive and operation stops cleanly. What it does:

• Provides the return force for an actuator or lever so it moves back to its neutral position
• Helps the mechanism engage/disengage a switch cleanly
• Common symptoms of a weak or broken spring: lever sticks, feels loose, or doesn't spring back
• Contribute to intermittent activation or failure to stop when released

• 1 actuator spring

• Disconnect power; if working near the dispenser/water system, shut off the water supply
• Access the actuator mechanism and note the spring's exact orientation (take a photo before removal)
• Use needle-nose pliers to transfer the spring; do not over-stretch or deform it
• Wear cut-resistant gloves and eye protection; test lever return action before reassembly

This genuine replacement spring provides the tension for the refrigerator water/filter release rod so the filter stays secured and releases correctly. Restores proper filter engagement for smooth insert and removal. What it does:

• Applies tension to the filter release rod so the filter locks and ejects reliably
• Helps prevent the filter from slipping or failing to latch
• Reduces binding or sticking when inserting or removing the filter
• Works with the filter housing release mechanism to maintain normal operation

• One filter release rod spring

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing; shut off water if accessing the water/filter area
• Remove the filter housing cover per your model's service instructions to access the spring
• Springs can be under tension—wear eye protection and handle carefully

This spring secures the meat pan rail in the refrigerator/drawer assembly so the pan tracks and stays in place during normal use. It's a simple replacement that restores proper tension and alignment for the meat pan. What it does:

• Provides tension to hold the meat pan or deli drawer on its rail
• Prevents the meat pan from slipping, sagging or rattling during use
• Restores secure engagement of the pan with the rail assembly
• Works as a direct-fit replacement for the original spring on the meat pan rail

• One meat pan rail spring

• Disconnect power to the appliance or unplug before servicing to avoid injury
• Remove the drawer/pan assembly to access the rail spring; keep track of small parts
• Use needle-nose pliers for safe removal and installation; avoid overstretching the spring

This spring solenoid is the actuator spring assembly that helps move and return a solenoid-driven mechanism, restoring reliable part movement and engagement in affected appliance systems. What it does:

• Provides return tension and controlled movement for a solenoid actuator
• Helps the solenoid plunger snap back after activation so linked components reset
• Commonly replaced when the actuator fails to move, sticks, or does not fully return
• Corrects symptoms such as intermittent engagement, sticking, or loss of actuator motion

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting service to avoid shock or injury
• Handle small components carefully; keep track of retaining clips, pins, or fasteners
• Replace with the exact part number to ensure fit and function
• Refer to OEM instructions for step-by-step removal and reassembly
