How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer and turn off water supply before inspection.

  • Step 1 – Inspect gasket: Open the door and carefully examine the entire circumference of the rubber door boot. Look for tears, holes, or mold damage.
  • Step 2 – Remove debris: Remove coins, bra wires, or other objects trapped in the folds of the gasket.
  • Step 3 – Check clamps: Inspect the inner and outer retaining rings/clamps that hold the gasket to the tub and front panel. Tighten or reseat if loose.
  • Step 4 – Replace gasket if damaged: If torn, remove the front panel, release both clamps, and install a new Asko door boot gasket, ensuring correct alignment of drain holes.
