1 Answer

Tim, That gasket does just push in unless the inner door panel grove is stretched out. If this is the case you may have to replace the inner door panel.

Hugh, It does not appear that there is a lower door seal on this unit. If the unit is leaking look for a cracked or clogged spray arm, also check for the unit filling with too much water. These would be the most likely causes.

Hello Heather, the lower inner door seal is a snap on fit. If it snaps in place but comes off when door is opened/closed check the inner lower front of the tub for any build-up /residue that may be pulling it off. Also check the door hinges for wear that may be allowing the door to ride lower.

Bob, Check the spray arms to make sure that there are not breaks or clogs in the arms. Also check the water level to make sure that it is not filling too high. Also check to make sure that the vent is not leaking by opening the door and see if there is moisture in the door.

Glenn, The bottom of the door panel has a slot in it that is holding the seal. You would pull the old seal out and push the new seal into the groove.

Hello Teran. It installs on the bottom of the inner door panel. The old one slips off and the new one slides onto the lip. Sometimes it is easier to remove the inner panel to install this.

Hi. Remove the lower kick panel. Remove the lower rack and use a torpedo level for leveling. Front to back on the rack rail and side to side on the opened door /tub lower area. Look underneath and make sure all 4-legs sre sung touching the floor. If the tub is not first leveled the door seal will not work. If you decide that you have opened inner dishwasher cabinet opening then yopu may decide to lower the front legs a liitle morer( 1/2-half bubble) and this tilts the front up slightly so the inner door seals agaqinst the door seal part # WP99003337. Open the door and feel the inner door raised ridge to see if there are nicks or gouges where the leak occurs. Look at the door seal as well for the same. Whipe the inner door seal area dry with a towel. Start the unit and let it run for a minute. SLOWELY open the door so you do not sling water out. Look at the inner door to see whewre the leak is and flings out the side. If there is no evidence then replace the inner door lower seal part # WP99003045. Make sure all seal area's are clean so it can seal. The door hinge does not adjust. Thank You.

Walt, A couple of easy checks to make first. Check the corner edge trims , and tub bottom trim, make sure they're in position. and the bottom door seal for damage or deterioration. check and make sure the door panel is not bowed or bent, with a straight edge in the seal contact area of the door, remove and check the lower spray arm for cracks in the seam or debris in the jet opening of the arm. Good Luck and Thanks
