How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and avoid slipping on spilled water.
- Inspect gasket: Examine the door gasket around the tub opening for tears, flattening, or gaps. Clean it with warm soapy water.
- Clean sealing surfaces: Wipe the door edges and mating surfaces to remove grease and debris.
- Check detergent: Ensure you are using dishwasher-specific detergent and not hand dish soap. Reduce quantity if excessive suds are present.
- Replace gasket: If the gasket is worn or deformed, remove it from the channel and install a new Electrolux door gasket, pressing it evenly into place.
