Monzo March 13, 2017 for Model Number FDBB4365FC1 I replaced the dishwasher bottom door gasket because I was getting water dripping out of lower left corner of door as the rubber was torn and loose from the plastic gasket part....after replacing the bottom door gasket I am still having small leak in lower left corner of door. The new gasket does not have plastic tabs on the ends with seal going up the side of the door approximately 1 inch like the old gasket did...I believe this to be the problem ? Does your part # 809006501 have the plastic tabs on the ends with the seal attached ?
1 Answer Monzo, No, we would not expect the replacement Gasket to have the Plastic tabs on the ends of the seal. You will need to order 154701001 / 154701001 the Splash Shields for each end of the gasket. You may also want to check and make sure the dishwasher is level in both directions, the lower spray arm seams aren't split and there's no debris protruding from the openings in the spray arm.

Stephen February 06, 2017 for Model Number FDB520RHC1B I replaced the lower door seal, gasket, and splash guards, but I'm still getting a leak out of the front of my dishwasher every time I run it. Any tips?
1 Answer Stephen, check and make sure the dishwasher is installed and secured to the cabinet properly and that the door aligns to the tub opening, make sure the dishwasher is level in both directions. Check the float, to make sure it moves up and down freely and is not sticking, allowing the machine to overfill. Then remove and check the lower spray arm seams to make sure they haven't split open, and the openings for debris or deposits that may be directing the wash water at the bottom of the door.

John January 31, 2017 for Model Number FGHD2465NF1A I ordered Part Number 809006501 to install on my Frigidaire dishwasher. The part I received has a notch in the center of the lower edge which would be the "seal side" of the gasket. The part in the dishwasher does not have this notch. I have checked a few sources and this does appear to be the correct part for this model dishwasher. Does this notch serve a purpose? As a follow-up to the above question... When running the dishwasher with the front door removed, I can see some water along the front edge of the dishwasher pan right at the bottom door seal. I have found a couple of videos online which also shows the same thing I am seeing. What is considered an acceptable amount of water to be at this location while the dishwasher is running.
1 Answer Hello John. Yes, the door panel has a tab that the notch slides over to seat the seal. Acceptable amount of water is not leaking onto the floor while the unit is running. Read More...
Bill December 21, 2016 for Model Number FGHD2433KF1 Hi, I bought a replacement bottom door gasket and it matches the old one. But when I install it - with the notch on the correct side, it just slides through the channel and comes out the other side. What is supposed to stop it from sliding through? Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Bill. As long as you have it seated properly into the channel, it should be tight enough not to slide. It sounds like you not getting it pressed into the channel properly on the inner door liner. Read More...
Janis December 03, 2016 Electrolux dishwasher leaks from lower left door corner. Do you think it's gasket or lower door seal? Thanks

Jason November 18, 2016 I bought this product to fix my leaking fridged air dishwasher. I am 100% I installed it correctly making sure it is even and seated all the way into the groove. It is not loose or upsidedown. I ran the washer with the door panel off and water was still coming through the gasket during the cycle. What could be the problem?
1 Answer Hello Jason. You will need to order and replace the lower door seal on the unit. Read More...
Jason November 16, 2016 Hello, I recently bought the bottom door gasket for my dishwasher. I'm 100% sure it is the right one but when I shut the door and run it with the panel off water is splashed through the seal. It is seated into the groove perfectly and completely even. The notch is also on the right side. What could be the problem? It seems like waves of water are hitting the seal. Thank you.
1 Answer Jason, You will want to check the spray arms for clogging and cracks. If this is the case then it can force water downward and cause wave action in the dishwasher therefor causing the leaking issue. Read More...
Amy September 13, 2016 for Model Number FGHD2433KB1 Can you tell me if the tub gasket part #809006501 has a small notch (approximate 1/4") in the center bottom? I have ordered the supposed replacement part from 3 different places, as well as my local appliance store, and all have come with a notch in the center bottom (not the notch that goes on the right hand side), even though the pictures have not shown a notch.
1 Answer Amy, According to what we can see there would be 2 notches, one towards the side and the other in the center. Read More...
Devin July 06, 2016 for Model Number FDB1050REC0 I bought a bottom door gasket for this model and I have watched the videos on how to replace it. When I went to remove the old gasket, it was no where to be found. When I go to inset the gasket with the notch going into the door, it just slides right by. Is the notch supposed to catch the gasket and hold it in place? is there something on the door that the notch is supposed to slide into? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Devin. You will need to remove the inner door panel. It sounds like the old gasket is stuck inside the channel on the inner door panel. Read More...
Shane May 02, 2016 I bought the replacement piece as the original fell out and melted on the dryer bar so I couldn't tell if the replacement was exactly the same. It appears that on the sealing edge there is a gap in the middle that wasn't on the OEM piece and after installing it it's leaking right at that gap. Any suggestions on how to stop that leaking?
1 Answer Shane, Remove the outer door panel and make sure the seal was installed and seated properly on the door liner. If all's OK, Then check the lower spray arm to make sure it's rotating properly and check the lower dish rack and tub bottom for articles or obstructions interfering with the spray arm. Check the lower spray arm seams and orifices for obstructions or cracks, directing the water towards the bottom of the door. Read More...
