Bauknecht Door seal leakage

Washer leaks water from front door area during wash

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

Damaged or torn door gasket, foreign object trapped in seal, loose retaining band, excessive suds causing overflow

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

Inspect door gasket: Open the door and carefully examine the rubber seal all around for tears, holes, or deformation. Remove coins, bra wires, or debris.
Check retaining bands: Ensure the metal or wire clamps holding the gasket to the front panel and tub are tight and properly seated.
Reduce detergent: Over-sudsing can cause leaks. Use the recommended amount of HE detergent.

If the gasket is damaged: Replace the door seal with a compatible Bauknecht part.
