After removing the lower front kick panel, I replaced the door springs without taking the dishwasher from the cabinets. This job took 20 minutes from start to finish. Very easy with the directions supplied.

Hi Rudy,
Thank you for your question. The repair can be made without having to remove the dishwasher from the cabinet. Here is some information that a customer left on how they installed the part, "1.To gain access - removed two retaining screws in lower front panel below the door. Lifted panel off hooks in toeplate.
2.Replace spring and retainer - note how retainer fits into spring and how spring is attached to door hinge. Rehook spring and retainer in same slot as before. There are two springs. If only one is broken, let the unbroken spring be your guide in replacing the new one." I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!
