The spring sits beside the door hinge and counterbalances the weight of the door, so it opens smoothly and stays where you put it. No model list is on file for this number, so check that the number on your old spring, or in your dishwasher's parts list, matches 4970ED4004D before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eLG dishwasher door dropping open or hard to close?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDishwasher doors are heavy, especially with the inner panel and racks loaded. Hinge springs take that weight so the door doesn't crash down when you open it or feel stiff when you close it. When a spring snaps, stretches or comes off its hook, the door falls open, sits unevenly, bangs against its stop, or won't stay half open. You may also hear a twang or find the spring hanging loose under the dishwasher. A broken spring puts extra strain on the hinge and the door seal, so it's worth replacing promptly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine LG part 4970ED4004D\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoor hinge spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBalances the door weight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor LG dishwashers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the dishwasher off at the wall, and turn the water tap off if you need to slide the machine out. The springs are usually reached from the side or underneath once the kickplate is off. Note how the old spring hooks onto the hinge and its anchor point. If one spring has failed, check the one on the other side and consider replacing both so the door stays balanced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShould I replace both hinge springs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf one spring has broken, the other has done the same work for the same time and may be close to failing.
