Craftsman Dishwasher Gasket & Seal

The Lower Door Seal is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. It plays a crucial role in preventing water from leaking out of the dishwasher door during cycles. This seal is positioned along the bottom of the door, ensuring a tight and secure closure that keeps water contained within the unit.

Causes of a bad Lower Door Seal may stem from various factors. These include natural wear and tear due to extended use, chemical degradation caused by harsh detergents, physical damage like tears or cuts, as well as improper installation or alignment.

Symptoms of a bad Lower Door Seal include:

• Water leaking from the bottom of the dishwasher door
• Visible signs of wear or damage on the seal
• Mold or mildew buildup on the seal due to constant moisture exposure

This OEM Bosch part can also be used on Thermador and Gaggenau appliances.

The Pump to Sump Gasket is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. It serves as a seal between the dishwasher's pump and the sump, preventing water leaks during the washing cycle. This gasket is essential for maintaining the integrity of the dishwasher's internal components, ensuring that water flows where it's supposed to go without causing damage to the machine or your home.

Causes of a malfunctioning Pump to Sump Gasket can stem from normal wear and tear, as repeated exposure to water and detergent can degrade the gasket over time. Improper installation may cause the gasket not to seal properly.

Symptoms of a bad Pump to Sump Gasket include:

• Water leaking from underneath the dishwasher.
• Signs of water damage or corrosion around the pump or sump area.
• Unusual noises during operation, which may indicate water is seeping into areas it shouldn't.

This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.
