FAQs

How do I know if I need to replace my dishwasher door hinge spring?

Signs include a door that won't stay open, feels excessively heavy, slams shut, or does not seal properly, potentially leading to leaks.

Will this hinge spring fit any Sharp dishwasher?

No, this spring is specifically designed for Sharp QWD21, QWD52, QWD53, and QWGD52 series models. Always verify your appliance model number.

How long does installation take?

Installation time can vary depending on your DIY experience and the specific model, but it typically takes between 30 minutes to an hour.

Do I need to buy two springs for my dishwasher?

Most dishwashers use two hinge springs, one on each side. Check your appliance's manual to confirm if both need replacement.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will typically need basic tools such as screwdrivers, pliers, and potentially a socket set. Consult your dishwasher's service manual for specific requirements.

Is this part made by Sharp?

This is a Spares2Go branded replacement part, designed to be compatible with specified Sharp dishwasher models.

Can I use this spring if my dishwasher is a slightly different model number?

It is strongly advised not to. Using a part not explicitly listed for your model can lead to improper fit, poor performance, or damage. Always confirm compatibility with your exact model number.

Troubleshooting

Dishwasher door does not stay open or feels heavy.

The hinge spring is likely worn or broken. Replace with this compatible Spares2Go spring.

Dishwasher door closes too quickly or slams shut.

This indicates a problem with the hinge spring's tension or integrity. Replacement is recommended.

Water leaking from the bottom of the dishwasher door.

An improperly sealed door due to a faulty hinge or spring can cause leaks. Ensure the door closes and seals correctly after replacing the spring.

The new spring does not fit correctly.

Double-check that you have the correct model number for your Sharp dishwasher and that this 167mm spring is indeed the specified part for your appliance series.
