The Gasket is an OEM part for LG washing machines. This part forms a seal around the washer door, preventing water from leaking out during wash cycles.
Causes of a bad gasket can include continuous exposure to water and detergent, mold or mildew buildup, and wear and tear from frequent opening and closing of the washer door.
Symptoms of a bad gasket include:
- Water leaking from the washer door during operation
- Visible cracks, tears, or deformities in the gasket
- Mold or mildew buildup on the gasket
- The door not sealing properly, leading to inefficient washing
This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.
