Rmar, You will want to check the door seal to make sure that this is not where the leaking is coming from. Also check the lower spray arm to make sure that there is no clogs or cracks in the spray arm.

Jim, Yes, a missing or broken tub deflector WP99001885 could cause a minor leak from the corners of the door. You may also want to check and adjust the door latch assembly 903098 tighter. Check to insure the dishwasher hasn't shifted inside the cabinet and is level in both directions.

Hello Rick, There should be a deflector on either side of door. If not you will want to install deflector. Also check spray arms for cracks. Cracked or broken spray arm wil cause the unit to leak due to spraying into bottom of tub and creating a rippling effect.

Hello John, If the unit is leaking from the bottom of the door there is a good change that the issue is either a stopped up hole in a spray arm, a spray arm that is separating where it is "melted" together at the factory, or an over soap situation. These are the most common causes of water leaks in the field. Check it out and let us know if we can provide further assistance.
