Description

The door closure spring restores the tension that pulls the door closed and holds it securely. Replacing a fatigued spring brings back smooth, reliable closing action and helps prevent doors that drift open or feel loose.

• Provides return tension to assist door closing and latch engagement
• Replaces a stretched, broken, or missing spring
• Can help with symptoms like a door that won't stay shut, pops open, or closes weakly
• Restores a consistent, even feel to the door movement

What's included: Includes 1 door closure spring. Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing; wear gloves and eye protection
• Support the door/drawer to relieve spring tension before removal
• Note the spring's routing and hook locations; take a photo for reference
• Use pliers to detach/attach the spring; keep hands clear of pinch points and avoid overstretching
