Manufacturer Part Number: 154579101

The Door Spring is an OEM part for Frigidaire dishwashers. It plays a critical role in the smooth operation of the dishwasher door, providing the necessary tension to ensure that the door opens and closes gently and securely. Without a functioning door spring, the door may drop open suddenly or be difficult to close, which can lead to potential hazards and inefficiencies in the kitchen.

Causes of a bad Door Spring can include stretching or snapping due to metal fatigue, corrosion from exposure to moisture and detergents, or improper alignment that leads to uneven wear and tear.

Symptoms of a failing Door Spring include:

  • The dishwasher door feeling unusually heavy or dropping open
  • A snapping sound when opening or closing the door
  • Difficulty in keeping the door closed or fully open
  • The door slamming shut rather than closing gently

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.

Tim, If the door is still elevated a little then you may need to adjust the springs to a slot closer to the front. There should be several slots that it could go into and you would just need to move it.

G.D. for Model Number FGBD2438PF3A

Question: I typed in the Door Spring item no. #154579101 for DW, model FGBD2438PF3A, and your site came up with # AP3958752. According to a number of websites, that door spring i.d. was replaced with door spring 154579101. I suspect it was replaced, due to the OEM inferior door spring that came with the Frigidaire FGBD2438PF3A Dishwasher we've had only 5 years with only two, over 60yr old residents using it and using it very seldom. The door started to drop lower and became hard to handle for the wife. I checked the door assembly out and found the door springs to be stretched and distorted from its original shape. I've not seen that in any dishwasher I had to work on and install or take out over the decades of being a plumber. I also find these springs to be OVER-PRICED to say the least. Most prices on the net are in the mid to high 40's to the 50's. Ridiculous for 2 damn springs. This is a no brainer to fix but, my original question.. why are you showing an obsolete number, when everyone else is showing the replacement no. of 15457901 ?? which I typed in when looking for it on your site.

G.D., the door spring 154579101 is the most current part number listed by the manufacturer and the part numbers it replaces are listed after it as a reference to indicate the previous part number allocations. The part number AP3958752 is the distributor part number that we utilize.

Hello Homeowner, This is most likely the fault of a bent door hinge. It could also be attributed to a bent frame. The unit needs to be pulled out far enough to inspect both sides. The tight side will be the way the other side should look. If you find the hinge is bent, you will see the difference by comparing it to the way the other side looks. You can also take measurements with a tape measure to compare for differences. Don't overlook the fact that a bent door will affect the door closure and cab also cause slack in the door springs.

Hello Mike. There are 2 springs 154579101 on the unit. These are fairly easy to replace, but will require the dishwasher to be pulled out from the cabinets to replace them.
