This door gasket is the flexible rubber seal that fits the dishwasher door to keep water inside the tub during cycles. Replacing a worn gasket restores a watertight seal and helps stop leaks and moisture buildup. What it does:
- Seals the gap between the door and tub to prevent water leaks during wash cycles
- Keeps spray and suds inside the dishwasher, protecting surrounding flooring and cabinetry
- Helps reduce odors and mold growth by maintaining a tight seal that limits moisture escape
- Common symptom: water pooling or dripping from the bottom/side of the door
- Common symptom: visible cracks, tears, flattening, or hardened areas in the gasket
What's included:
Install notes:
- Inspect the door channel and mating surfaces; clean away residue before installing the new gasket
- Press the gasket evenly into the door channel, working from one end to the other to avoid twisting
- Turn off power and water to the appliance before working on the door; refer to the service manual for model-specific instructions
