GE uses a plastic spring design on their washing machines that apparently becomes brittle over time. Buttons on all three springs had broken. GE wanted $250 for a full new front panel trim set, so I 3D printed this replacement which works well. It comes in two parts that should interference fit together in order to avoid having to print an excess amount of support.
Note that I made the springs a bit wider and larger to reduce the stress. They're a bit less springy now, but they should last longer.
