Does lid on center console have a spring

[11bravo]

My new-to-me 2007 Denali center console lid does not spring up a little when I press the latch to open it. All others I've owned had a spring assist on the hinge...does ours have that?

If so, I will buy a new hinge...they are only $17, but wanted to know first.

Thanks!

I believe that mine has a spring in the hinge. It doesn't open on its own, but there is a feeling of 'assist' when I open it.

I don't think mine does.

Thanks for the answers. All other GM consoles I have owned....you pressed the button to release the lid (lid popped up a bit), then lifted the lid.

Not a big deal...more curious than anything.

no release spring, other than in the button

The lid on my '13 LTZ has springs. They're only good for keeping the lid fully up and don't provide any "pop" when you release the latch.
