• Provides return tension so the ice chute door closes after dispensing
• Helps maintain a tight seal to limit frost, condensation, and air leaks
• Can resolve a chute door that sticks open/closed or won't fully close
• Reduce rattling or poor ice flow caused by a loose flapper

• 1 spring

• Disconnect power to the refrigerator before servicing
• Remove dispenser trim/control panel to access the ice door assembly
• Note spring orientation on the flapper; transfer/install carefully without over-bending
• Smooth flap movement and a proper seal before reassembly

This genuine OEM return spring restores proper return/tension for the appliance component it connects to, helping controls, latches or hinges snap back into place. Replacing a worn spring can stop sticking, sagging or failed return action. What it does:

• Provides tension to return a lever, latch or door component to its resting position
• Restores crisp return action when a control or hinge feels loose or fails to snap back
• Helps reduce rattling or intermittent contact caused by a weak or broken spring
• Functions quietly once replaced, improving normal operation of the affected mechanism

• Disconnect power and gas before servicing; follow appliance-specific safety instructions
• Springs can be under tension — use proper tools and caution to avoid injury or part damage
• Compare the old spring to the new one for correct length and end type before installation

A replacement solenoid spring that restores proper plunger return and tension for compatible Whirlpool solenoid assemblies. Replaces worn or broken springs to help ensure reliable actuator movement and consistent operation. What it does

• Provides return tension for the solenoid plunger so the actuator snaps back after activation
• Helps restore normal solenoid movement when a worn spring causes sticking or weak response
• Commonly used when the appliance fails to engage, release, or cycle components driven by a solenoid
• Works as a direct-fit spring for the matching solenoid assembly when part is specified

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair to avoid shock or injury.
• Remove access panels and the solenoid assembly to access the spring.
• Handle small parts carefully; note placement and orientation of the spring for correct reassembly.
• If other solenoid or actuator components are damaged or corroded, replace the entire assembly for reliable operation.
