Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Door falls open without normal spring resistance
• Door will not remain partially open
• Door is difficult to lift, close, or latch
• Door movement is uneven from side to side
• Visible spring, cable, or pulley damage may accompany the problem

Check Before Replacing

• With the dishwasher empty and the door fully supported, slowly open and close the door and compare its resistance and movement on both sides.
• Visually inspect the accessible door-spring and cable area for a detached or broken spring, damaged cable, or cable that has slipped from the pulley path.
• Check whether the door remains in a stable position through part of its opening range rather than dropping rapidly.
• If the door is heavy, misaligned, or will not latch, inspect the spring and cable along with the hinge before concluding that the spring is defective.
• Disconnect electrical power before removing access panels or reaching into the dishwasher; avoid operating the door if the spring or cable is visibly broken.

Installation Notes

• Disconnect electrical power before service and use care around sharp metal edges; GE recommends wearing gloves when installing or adjusting dishwasher door springs.
• Follow the appliance-specific service or installation instructions for spring placement and tension; the number and arrangement of springs can vary by model.
• After fitting the spring, inspect cable routing around the pulley and confirm the cable is retained within the pulley shoulders.
• Test door balance by opening and closing the door slowly before returning the dishwasher to normal use.
• Confirm the door closes smoothly and latches correctly; do not operate the dishwasher if the door drops rapidly or remains misaligned.
