• Helps the door open and close with controlled movement and stay in position
• Symptoms of failure can include a door that drops quickly, feels heavy, or won't stay put
• May also cause popping/squeaking noises or uneven action on one side of the door

• Disconnect electrical power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Remove the toe panel/kick plate to access springs near the hinges
• Carefully relieve and reattach spring tension; wear gloves and eye protection
• Ensure both sides are tensioned evenly after replacement
