The Boot Gasket is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch front-loading washing machines. Sealing the inner door opening, its flexible silicone maintains a humidity barrier. Proper sealing prevents wasted utilities from poorly managed airflow.

Symptoms of a faulty boot gasket commonly involve cracking that creates moisture escapes. Dehydrated fragments lose sealing properties necessitating change.

Causes of a bad boot gasket relate to natural drying processes hardening material. Repeated impacts introduce splits requiring timely replacement.

Causes of a bad boot gasket can involve:

• Growths of mildew or fungus within the appliance 
• Unusual odors in the laundry room   
• Drips or puddles on the washer door or nearby floor

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with some Siemens, Miele, and Asko washing machines. Replace to preserve controlled airflow trapping heat and moisture indoors for utility-economical performance through years of use.
 

The Drive Motor is an OEM replacement part for Bosch washing machines. This powerful motor is responsible for driving the drum rotation during the wash and spin cycles.

A bad drive motor can occur due to electrical faults, mechanical issues, or normal wear and tear over time. Signs of a faulty drive motor include the drum not spinning or agitating, unusual noises coming from the motor, or the washer not starting at all.
