RF268ABPN/XAA-0000 Samsung Refrigerator - Instructions

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.

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..

replacing broken french door spring.

Show how to fix it on YouTube so that helped a lot. I ordered a new spring gave all the correct information and the spring was too big that showed up
lol so had to go to Plan B an modified the broken spring lol works great now

Partselect made the repair process incredibly easy by linking a how-to video that explained exactly what to do. Without the video, I was trying to take the whole washer apart, but the video noted a convenient opening that provided easy access.
This is my second experience with Partselect, and I am definitely a fan. How you can maintain a stockpile of parts for so many appliances (as well as providing installation guidance for at least some items) is remarkable. Thanks.

Unscrewed broken caps and installed new ones

Used a pair of needle nose pliers and replaced the spring.

Held spring with needle nose pliers and slipped into place

had to replace the spring on the Mullion door . the how to video helped however the demonstration shows putting the spring on in the opposite way that my door calls for, so just I turned the spring around and done, other than that easy as pie.
thanks

Replaced the spring on my French door refrigerator
Was super easy

On both sides of the door there is a pop off cover that houses the broken mechanism. I popped off the cover and exposed the screws the attached the handle to the opening mechanism. removing those screws I removed the handle from the freezer door. I replaced the broken plastic piece on the handle . Reattached the repaired handle assembly to the door with the 4 screws. Reinstalled the cover.

after receiving spring installed spring in seconds. Thanks partselect.com Ryan Cappell

Lifted out the broken part and replaced with new spring.
