The Dishwasher Door Balance Spring prevents the door of the appliance from dropping too quickly when you open it. If the current spring in your appliance is malfunctioning, you can quickly replace it with this part. Installing this part will require minimum hand tools, minor disassembly of the dishwasher and novice repair experience. Note that while this is a quick install, you must still use caution to prevent the spring from snapping under pressure and potentially causing injury. Helpful Tip: We also recommend using affresh® Dishwasher Cleaner (item W10282479) to help remove limescale and mineral build-up that can be unsightly and affect your dishwasher’s performance. *affresh® brand products are owned and distributed by Whirlpool Corporation.
