Product Description

The Whirlpool W10156812 Microwave Door Spring is a little but important part of your microwave oven. It's a metal coil that works as a hinge, connecting the microwave's door and main chassis. This spring provides strain to ensure that the door opens and closes smoothly and securely. When you close the door, the spring compresses. As you open it, the spring expands, allowing for a gentle swing. A broken or weakened door spring can cause a variety of issues. A sagging door may not seal properly, resulting in uneven cooking or significant safety issues because microwaves leak radiation while operating. In severe cases, a broken spring can stop the door from locking altogether, which would mean the microwave would be worthless.
