Description
This is a replacement part for the Electrolux EIFLW50LIW spring return on the soap dispenser drawer. The original part has what looks to be an injection point in the mold that made a weak point and cased the part to buckle and bend in half. Also, the parts fiche doesn't have this part alone, just the entire housing for >$100… absolutely insane (which I'm not even sure you can get anymore).
Printed at 0.2 layer height out of PLA+, 100% infill, and supports. Not sure if 100% infill is really needed, but I didn't want to have to re-do this.
This should fit other similar Electrolux models like this EIFLS55IIW0. If you have a confirmed fit on other models leave a make and comment and I'll update the description.
Check out this YouTube video for details on how to align the part and install it (not my video, but I found it very helpful).
Please excuse the hot glue on the original part. That was my first sad attempt at trying to fix this.
