This door spring restores the proper counterbalance of the oven door so it opens smoothly and closes with controlled tension. Replacing a worn or broken spring helps prevent the door from dropping, slamming, or sitting unevenly.
- Provides counterbalance tension for the oven door through the hinge mechanism
- Helps the door open smoothly and hold at a partially open position
- Maintains even alignment and consistent gasket contact
- Common symptoms of failure: door feels heavy, drops open or slams, uneven door height, squeaks during movement
What's included: One door spring. Install notes:
- Disconnect power at the breaker and allow the oven to cool completely
- Springs are under tension—support the door and use caution to avoid injury
- Note the spring's routing and anchor points before removal; reinstall in the same positions
- For even tension, consider replacing both door springs when the design uses one per side
