Washer leaks water from the front door area during wash or rinse.

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

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

Inspect the gasket:

Open the door and carefully examine the rubber gasket all around, especially the bottom, for tears, holes, or cuts.
Remove coins, bra wires, or debris trapped in the folds.

Check retaining bands:

Ensure the outer metal or plastic clamp around the gasket is tight and properly seated in its groove.
If loose or broken, replace the clamp.

Replace gasket if damaged:

Remove the outer clamp and peel the gasket off the front panel.
Access the inner clamp at the tub side (may require top/front panel removal) and remove it.
Fit the new Brandt-compatible gasket onto the tub lip, secure the inner clamp, then refit the gasket to the front panel and install the outer clamp.

Run a short wash and observe for leaks. Use high-efficiency detergent in correct amounts to avoid oversudsing.
