Product details
Part 38335026 is a small tension spring for the debris door on Hoover Fold-Away and EmPower uprights. It supplies the closing force, so the door returns to its shut position on its own instead of being left to hang.
Springs this size fail quietly. They stretch, lose tension, or break outright, and the first sign is usually a door that no longer sits firmly closed. The fault is mechanical rather than electrical, so the motor and the belt keep behaving normally, which is why a loose door is easy to overlook while cleaning performance quietly drops off.
- Part: 38335026, debris door tension spring
- Fits: Hoover U5172900, U5175900, U5262910, U5265900, U5269900, UH40155
- Function: supplies the closing tension that holds the debris door shut
- Symptom it fixes: a debris door that hangs loose or will not stay closed
Read the model number off your machine's data plate and check it against that list before ordering, since a spring wound for a different machine will not give the same closing force. Fitting the replacement is a few minutes of work with basic hand tools, and it is worth confirming the door swings freely once the new spring is on rather than binding anywhere in its travel.
