Signs it has failed

Check before you buy

What replacing it fixes: if the signs above match your dishwasher and the checks point to this part, fitting a new one should clear those faults. If the symptoms continue, the cause is elsewhere (a control board, a sensor or a blocked vent or hose).

How to replace it

  1. Open the door and pull out the old seal from its channel
  2. Clean the channel
  3. Press the new seal into place, starting at the corners
  4. Check it sits evenly without twists
  5. Run a short test cycle

Guide steps are typical for this type of part. Layouts differ between models, so follow your own manual where it differs.

Getting the right part

Seals vary by length and profile. Match the part number or your model number.

Check your model number first. It is on the rating plate — usually inside the door frame, on the back or side panel, or inside the appliance. Parts that look identical often differ by model, so match the number to the listing before you order.
