WH01X10251 - GE Refrigerator Spring

This GE Refrigerator Spring (WH01X10251) is a genuine part, specifically designed for GE home appliances. It fulfills a variety of roles within your refrigerator, including providing flexible suspension, tension, sealing electrical connections, and sensing. This spring is vital for ensuring door hinges and latch mechanisms have the necessary closing force, isolating vibration with suspension springs, maintaining electrical continuity through contact springs, checking door closure with sensing springs, storing rotational energy in torsion springs, and using spring tension for sealing door gaskets. Overtaxed or broken springs can lead to the failure of components like ice makers and latches, emphasizing the importance of replacing them with springs of equivalent ratings to maintain beneficial forces throughout your refrigerator. Symptoms that may indicate the need for a replacement spring include malfunctioning ice makers, unresponsive latch mechanisms, compromised door sealing, and increased vibration noise. Verify your refrigerator's model number to ensure compatibility before purchasing.
