Dishwasher leaks from underneath the unit; water appears on the floor under the cabinet.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Cracked sump assembly, Loose or cracked circulation pump hose, Leaking drain hose, Failed pump seal on GE Café circulation pump

Safety first: Turn off power and water immediately. Use towels to contain water.

Remove toe-kick: Inspect the base pan for water and dry it.
Pull unit out: Carefully slide the dishwasher out of the cabinet to inspect all sides.
Run a test: With the unit pulled out and panels removed, run a short cycle and observe for drips from the sump, pumps, and hoses.
Replace leaking parts: Tighten clamps or replace the GE Café sump assembly, hoses, or pump seals as needed.
