This flexible door boot seal lines the washer's door opening and seals the gap between the tub and front panel, helping keep wash water contained and preventing leaks from the front of the machine.

  • Creates a watertight seal between the outer tub and front panel/door opening
  • Helps prevent leaks during fill, wash, and spin cycles
  • Flexible design maintains the seal as the door opens and closes
  • Common failure signs: water on the floor near the door, drips from the front, visible rips/cracks, or a loose/deformed gasket; persistent mildew buildup around the boot
What's included: 1 rubber door boot seal Install notes:
  • Disconnect power and turn off water before servicing
  • Remove the front/door panel as needed, then release the outer and inner retaining bands to remove the old boot
  • Note orientation marks and any hose/port locations; seat the new boot evenly all the way around before refitting clamps
  • After reassembly, run a short fill/rinse and check the door area for leaks

If there is play, the tub will need to be removed and the outer tub assembly will need to be separated and then determine what the problem is once you are inside the tub.
