Dishwasher leaked when running, noticed worn gaskets
I consulted the videos and they did a good job of showing what needed to be done. Both the gasket band seal fit. The seal at the bottom of the door was not designed to be a very tight fit, so I used the adhesive. There were some plastic drain cups that were also included with the lower door seal kit that would have required more time and would require getting deeper into the dishwasher to replace them. They were not worn or broken, so I left them in place.

Lower door seal went missing and water splashing on to floor
First off if PartSelect sends your door kit folded over in a mailer envelope you will never get it to stay on door. Took five days with weight sitting on it to flatten door seal.

Ridiculous way to ship a straight seal.

Buy the seal from someone who understands the application.

water leaking out of front of dishwasher
Read you insructions . Lowered the door. Pull up the door meatlhinge tabs. Snap out the door (circuit and springs still holding onto the door. Laid the door on the floor. Popped out the 2 hinge plastic covers. Popped the new ones in. Snapped the door back on the hinges. Put the metal tabs back over the hinge peg. After the door was shown to work. Put the new front seal on the door. Caution: You can put the door seal in the wrong configuration thus the seals sticks out and when you pull the lower dish tray out the seal will come off. Look at you old one to ensure the proper technique installing the splastic strip. Done. Pretty simple if you look at the old stuff before replacing the new.

leaking at bottom of door.
We were told by a repair guy to buy a new dishwasher-about a $900+ cost to replace. Then a local parts place and Sears each quoted us $85 for the part plus $129 to come out. Found your website and bought the part for $17. Also bought a hard rubber gasket that fits on the bottom of the door for $8. The brackets that came with that last part were the hardest to install, but the gaskets took 15 minutes. We did glue another strip of the long door gasket along the area under the door lip. Works great! Saved over $800. You rock!

Dishwasher was leaking water at the door
The lower door seal had fallen out as it was worn out so I wasn't sure of the proper orientation of the new seal or even where it went as the instructions had nothing about the seal. A little bit of logical thinking and the seal just just snapped in place. The door drains that came with the kit were both a right or left hand and so I didn't install them. Turns out that I didn't need the new ones anyway. The old door seal just pulled out and the new one just pushed into place. I was careful to center the top of the strip so that it would come out even at both sides of the bottom. There were no instructions for the door seal but none were needed. As long as I was working on the washer I did some cleaning to make it look new and bright...that took the most time. Easy repair and a happy wife besides.

Suds and water leaking from bottom of door
Bent back metal ears over door hinge pins, released door springs from door hinges. Lifted door off of hinges and replaced corner drain back seals and lower door seal.Still leaks so obviously I have another issue or the door seal is lousy quality. I've completed this project before and never had another issue for 6 years.

Received part 4172127 and special adhesive, but no instructions. Do I need the 2 plastic parts, can't figure where they go. Ms Shaw ordered parts from you, just trying to be a good ex.

Hi Jack, Thank you for the question. the two plastic parts go at the corners of the door. You will need to remove the door in order to remove the old parts and have them replaced. Hope this helps!

How do you install lower door seal with adhesive to prevent leaking seal can be put on two different ways so which way is correct?
For model number KUD124SE
PartSelect logo
Hello, Thank you for your inquiry. Open up the dishwasher door and pull out the old seal. Then close the door and use a 1/4 inch nut driver to remove the lower access panels. Next you need to remove the two door springs, make note of which notch they are in, then push the spring down to push it off the rail. Bend the tap that holds the hinge onto the pin with a flat head screw driver right behind the tab and bend it up and out of the way so you can lift the pin out of the hinge to release them. Close the dishwasher door, you may want to put a towel down, then lift it off the hinges and set it on the floor. Remove the left and right tub spacers by lifting them out. Put in the new tub spacers by pushing them down into place. Then replace the door on the hinges. Lower it down, then bend the hinge tab back down so it closes the hinge pin in place enough so that it holds the hinge but doesn't restrict the movement of the hinge. When you put the lower seal on, you want to make sure that the little slot is where the bottom of the door goes into. Apply the adhesive carefully along the edge, then insert the seal into the bottom of the door. Close the door and then reach underneath to hook the door springs onto the rails back onto the notch you took them off of. Before you put the kick panels back on, you may want to run a load to make sure there is no leaks. Then re-attach the panels, starting with the lower one first, then the upper one and re-attach the screws. Hope this helps!

Do you happen to have a new video to replace the inner door seal. Al the videos are for the old style door. I have a one piece door with the operating buttons on the top edge of the door, so when it closes the buttons are not visible. There is only on plate that covers the very bottom. So this is long door version. Any videos i find on line are again for only the old style dishwasher. If you need to see what i mean just look at my model which is not new by any manner. It is 10 yrs old. I have just replaced the door gasket and that did not solve the problem of the leak on the right side of the door, so i have just ordered the bottom inner door seal and that is where all the videos are for 20 + yr old dishwashers. Please let me know if you can even provide written instructions i would appreciate it. Thanks darcy

Kenmore 665.15982 dishwasher. When in a number of wash program modes - as the program switches from washing to drain mode water pours out the bottom of the door - sounds washing and draining at the same time. I cancel the program and manually select drain option - the water pouring out the bottom of the door stops and the water drains as normal. This issue started all at once - not gradually. Does the pump do both spraying and draining and potentially not switching between the two properly when in a program mode.
PartSelect logo
Hello Dave, Thank you for your inquiry. Part# PS3500989 controls both the water circulation and draining. You can test this part with a multimeter to see if it is causing the problem. We also recommend checking the water inlet valve, the door switch, the float switch, and the float stem kit. If you are unfamiliar with how a multimeter functions, we have videos available to assist you. Good luck with your repair.
