Product details

Anyone who has wrestled a door boot spring back onto an LG front loader will see the point of this tool. The 383EER4004A is a generic expansion tool that holds the wire clamp spring open while you work it around the outer lip of the door boot. It's an aftermarket tool rather than an LG-made item, and it suits LG front load washing machines that use a spring style clamp on the door seal.

Why an LG door seal job needs a spring expansion tool

The outer edge of an LG front loader's door boot is held to the front panel by a wire clamp spring that sits in a groove around the seal. Getting that spring off is easy. Stretching it back on by hand is fiddly, and it often slips, kinks or flies off halfway round. A kinked or overstretched spring won't grip evenly, which can leave gaps where water escapes during the wash. This tool takes the strain while you seat the spring, so it goes back on evenly and the boot stays sealed. It's handy for door boot replacements, bearing jobs and any repair where the front panel has to come off.

Part details

  • Part number 383EER4004A
  • Generic aftermarket tool, not made by LG
  • Expands the door boot clamp spring for removal and refitting
  • Suits LG front load washing machines with a spring style door boot clamp

Using the spring expansion tool

Switch the washer off at the wall and turn off the taps before any door boot work. Seat the lip of the boot fully in the front panel groove first. Hook the spring onto the tool, then work it around from the bottom up, checking it sits in the groove all the way round. Run a short rinse and watch the bottom of the door for drips.

Questions about this part

Is this tool made by LG?

No. This is a generic aftermarket tool. It does the same job, opening up the door boot clamp spring so it can go back on without being stretched out of shape or kinked.

Do I need it to replace a door seal?

You can sometimes manage without it, but the spring is easy to overstretch or kink by hand, and a damaged spring won't hold the boot tightly. The tool makes the job quicker and lowers the chance of needing a new clamp.
