Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Switch off and unplug the dishwasher. Mop up any spilled water to avoid slipping.

Inspect door seals:

  • Open the door and inspect the main tub gasket around the perimeter for splits, flattening, or mould.
  • Check the lower door seal/deflector at the bottom edge for damage.

Check spray arms and loading:

  • Inspect the lower spray arm for cracks or blocked jets that could redirect water at the door.
  • Ensure large trays or pans are not blocking the spray arm or pushing against the door.

Action:

  • Replace the main door gasket and/or lower door seal if worn.
  • Replace a damaged lower spray arm.

Run a short cycle and observe the door area for leaks before pushing the machine fully back into place.
