Door Seal / Spray Pattern Leak
Dishwasher leaks water from the bottom of the door onto the floor during the wash.

Possible Causes
Dirty or damaged door gasket, Blocked spray arm jets directing water at door, Overfilling due to level fault, Dishwasher not level (leaning forward)
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and mop up spilled water to prevent slipping.
- Clean door gasket: Wipe the door seal and the mating surface on the tub with warm soapy water to remove grease and debris.
- Inspect gasket: Check for tears, flattening, or gaps in the gasket. Replace if damaged.
- Clean spray arms: Ensure no jets are blocked, which can cause misdirected high-pressure streams toward the door.
- Level the appliance: Adjust the front feet so the dishwasher is not leaning forward; a slight backward tilt helps keep water inside.
- If leaking continues: The bottom door seal or internal water level control may be faulty and should be inspected by a technician.
