DFSF9VKBABB Refrigerator - Instructions

Went on the Internet to find the installation instructions.

Really nothing to say simply replace the old spring with the new one and it’s as good as new

This company has everything!! One simple spring was all I needed. Fast shipping and product was exactly what they said I needed. Took me less than a minute to fix!! I’ll definitely shop here again!!

Once I understand how to remove the old part the rest was very easy .
Had ice in a couple of hours .

Used pliers to put new spring in place;
Time took about 3seconds and I’m a female. Video provided very helpful.

I took out the old one and put in the new. 15 seconds.

Called someone else. Got the parts elsewhere.
Got the fridge back online 3 week longer than it should.
got charged for the part then failed to send it.
then finally allowed they didn't have the part in stock.

Following the YouTube video - referenced in the PartSelect Website -
First installed the Spring Pin on the Mullion - Then inserted the top end of the Spring into the SPRING PIN - then while holding the spring in place with a left hand finger - using needle-nose pliers in my right hand I manipulated the other end ( the lower end) of the spring into the receiving hole on the door .. DONE!

I removed the old spring along with the sleeve and inserted the new one in its place. used a small screw driver to remove the sleeve and inserted the sleeve side in first. took 5 minutes..

Took out the old piece. Washed and replaced with the new one.

Spent a dollar 1.97 on the spring.7.00 on shipping and fixed it in less than 5 minutes.Fantastic

Placed lower spring leg in hole first. Manipulated upper spring leg into upper hole with needle nose pliers.

After purchasing the spring I realized the hinge was the culprit. It has the retainer for the spring as part of it, a small plastic piece that broke off cause the spring to get lost. The hinge replacement was a little more in depth but the video on the hinge is very good and on point.

Placed one end of the new spring in left hole and used the needle nose pliers to insert the other end of the spring in the right hole.

Moved stuff out of my way on the top shelf, reached in and turned old filter to remove. Filled new filter with water, lined up and turned to lock in place. Whew, never thought I would get that job done. :-)
