Randy for Model Number mdb4709pabo Hi, I get water leaking from under the float retainer, it doesn't happen all the time is their a gasket or o ring needing to be replaced
Answer Randy, No there are no O rings or gaskets involved in the water level standpipe assembly WPW10316267. Most leaks from this area are due to a water level or " wave action" from the spray arm, or over sudsing. You want to check and make sure the dishwasher is level in both directions( front to back and side to side) make sure the water level is correct in the bottom of the tub, start the dishwasher and allow it to run a few minutes(3-5), unlatch and open the door, remove the lower rack, the water level in the bottom of the tub, should be within 1/4 inch of the bottom of the heater element(lowest) and may partially submerge the element(highest). If all's OK, check the detergent and rinse agent for possible separation or sudsing due to the chemicals. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Tuesday, February 11, 2014
