Possible Causes
Damaged door gasket, Blocked or cracked lower spray arm, Over-foaming from wrong detergent, Misaligned door
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and close the water tap. Mop up spilled water to prevent slipping.
- Inspect door gasket: Check the rubber seal around the door for tears, deformation, or hardened sections. Clean it with warm soapy water.
- Check lower spray arm: Remove the lower spray arm and inspect for cracks or splits that could cause jets to spray directly at the door. Replace if damaged.
- Avoid hand-wash detergent: Only use dishwasher detergent. Hand-wash liquids create excessive foam that can leak from the door.
- Check door alignment: Ensure the door closes evenly on both sides. Adjust hinges or leveling if necessary.
If the gasket is flattened or brittle, replace it with a genuine Gorenje door seal.
