Gasket Specifications

This part is a replacement gasket for your dishwasher. The gasket creates a seal at the bottom of the dishwasher tub, so water does not leak out while the dishwasher is running. If you notice water leaking out onto the floor, you should inspect the gasket for damages and replace as necessary. The gasket is gray in color and is approximately 22 inches long. It is made of plastic and is sold individually. This is a genuine OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer.

old gasket deteriorated, needing replaced
Unscrewed brackets on top of dishwasher from underside of counter. Removed dress plate at bottom of dishwasher. Pulled dishwasher out of opening to access door hinge. Disconnected pulley cable/rope from each side door hinge. Let go slowly.
There is a 1/4 bolt holding the door tight to the hinge. With door closed (still) the screw is on bottom of bottom edge. Use wrench to loosen and remove.
Once both bolts are out, open door. Pull door away from dishwasher just enough (1-3 inches) to slide out old gasket. Prior to removing take note of existing gasket orientation and installation. Slide old gasket out one side and slide new gasket in.
Push in door tight to hinges,close door, use wrench to put bolts back in. Reattach pulley cable/rope to each side. Push back into opening. Reattach to counter. Put dress plate on bottom back.
Return dishwasher to regular use.

Heating element broke off and burned a hole in rubber tube, leaking water.
Replaced the dishwasher with a new one! used the same brand (GE) but different model to make the job a little easier, first cut power to the outlet, disconnected electrically from dishwasher, cut off water source from dishwasher, and disconnected hose from garbage disposal, removed old dishwasher put new one in, connected electrical wires (color coded), connected water supply with pliers, and connect your hose to your disposal and level your new disposal with leveling screws that comes with the new dishwasher. Put front cover plate on with screws provided with a screwdriver and that's it.

Old corroded gasket
Replaced gasket with a new one before further problems occurred. Got to get it in but it was relatively easy to place and snap in just make sure it fits on the right place where gasket inside meets ridges on door so it will be on properly for proper fit.

Leaking under door
Since I have granite countertops, unscrewed 2 screws on each side of cabinet. Unscrewed the toe plate, unplugged the wire connector, and disconnected the cable
from the door which was held by tie wraps. Pulled out dishwasher about a foot. Unhooked the spring cable to the door, lifted the door out and placed it on a spare table. With door face down on a towel, I unscrewed the screws at the bottom to release the latches, then unscrew the screws that hold the door locked in place. Turned the door on its back face up, wedged a flathead driver to release the settings display, from the body of the door. Separated the 2 panels replaced the foam rubber vent seal. Placed the face face down, reconnected both pieces of the door together pushing down. Rescrewed the bottom to lock the 2 pieces together reinsert the hinges, screwed them in with nutdriver1/4". Grabbed the old gasket, replaced it with new one, sliding it into the groove on the bottom inside of door. Reattached the door to the washer, rehooked the cables to the door, retired with zip ties the cable to the underside of door, reinstalled the wire connector, and re screwed the toe plate. Pushed the dishwasher, leveled, rescrewed into cabinet. Replaced the tub gasket.

Dishwasher leaking at bottom of door
Don't remove the door! Unscrew the bolts at each lower corner of the door(this is how the door is attached to the hinges so it is now free). Then open the door fully and slowly pull the door toward you a few inches. This slides the door up the hinges and allows just enough room to slide the old gasket out and and slide the new one in. Then slide the door back down the hinges(pushing it away from you, back into place). Then simply close the door and reinstall the bolts at the bottom corners and all done! I watched several videos and believe me, removing the door to replace this gasket does nothing but turn and small quick repair into a large lengthy one.

lower door gasket deteriorated/moldy
The dishwasher had been installed before we added 3/4 oak floor, so I could not pull the dishwasher out from under the counter. That will be a major project when the dishwasher dies.
To remove the door, I removed the two 1/4 " screws on the right and left bottom of the door. I used a box wrench since that was the only way to reach them. One had corroded due to a leak. it took some coaxing but finally came loose. The hint about opening the door 27 degrees and propping it open with two Allan wrenches through the hinge holes was very helpful. Then I lifted the door a little and gently pushed toward the counter releasing the door form the hinges. I took the door off to find a leak and found the right corner edge of the inside tub had cracked. Not sure how this happened. I cleaned and sanded the crack area and used J-B Weld to epoxy the crack. Replacing the gasket was easy. Slide out the old, slide in the new. Everything went back together smoothly. If I hadn't needed to repair the tub, the hint about opening the door all the way and sliding it out part way might have worked to change the gasket. Note. Unlike a stove door the dishwasher door is not that heavy.

Dishwasher was leaking at the bottom of the door (left side)
I removed the old gasket and installed the new one in the same position as the one I removed. I had to feel with my fingers for the ridge to insert the gasket so that it would hold. I must admit that I was skeptical that it would work (the old one didn't even seem very damaged). I ran a cycle and there was no more leaking. We've been using the dishwasher ever since with no issues of leakage.

Very satisfied customer.

Hello Mark, Thanks for your question. Remove the screws at the bottom of the door, then slide it back along the hinges until you can access the bottom gasket. Remove the gasket, then set the new one in place and reposition the door accordingly, then reapply the screws. I hope this helps.

Hello Lynn, Thank you for your inquiry. This goes on the bottom of the inside of the door.

Remove the gasket, then set the new one in place and reposition the door accordingly, then reapply the screws. Although we do not have a video for this exact part number, I have included a link to a video for a similar part to assist you.

Hi:I replaced the bottom gasket on my GE dishwasher even though it was still in good shape as it's under 2 years old. It is still dripping on the left side, front, in the corner. Can't figure out where it's coming from. Anyone have any suggestions? Should i replace the tub gasket as well? Anything else? Thanks for responding.

My dishwasher started leaking from the bottom. I suspect its leaking from the bottom of door. I called GE to see if there is a gasket for the bottom of the door, and there is, i am not sure how to remove or install the gasket. There are no visible screws so i think i have to lift the door and unhinge then pull out.. maybe then i can see where the gasket is..then remove old one and replace with new one. please advise

Hi Donna, Thank you for your question. For this model there should be screws that you will need to remove. Remove the screws at the bottom of the door, then slide it back along the hinges until you can access the bottom gasket. Remove the gasket, then set the new one in place and reposition the door accordingly, then reapply the screws. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Is there insulation that should have come with this dishwasher? It’s brand new and there’s a gap between the outside of the dishwasher and enclosure. —jw
For model number GDF510PSM0SS
PartSelect logo
Hi Jill, Thank you for your question. If the gap is at the bottom of the door, you will need to install a gasket if it is not already there. The part number listed under your model number for the gasket is PS11700870. The gasket creates a seal at the bottom of the dishwasher tub, so water does not leak out while the dishwasher is running. If you notice water leaking out onto the floor, you should inspect the gasket for damages and replace as necessary. The gasket is gray in color and is approximately 22 inches long. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

I need to replace the lower door seal but there are no screws to remove to access the seal.
For model number GDF520PGD4WW
PartSelect logo
Hi Bob, thank you for your question. There are screws all around the inner panel of your door that you would have to remove. Generally you can just remove a few of them from the bottom half to get enough wiggle room to replace the gasket, however you can also remove all of the screws to remove the entire inner panel. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Do you have any repair videos available? I haven't been able to find any on on youtube for this particular model. I'm trying to replace the gasket along the bottom of the door.Also, if the leakage that is coming from the center of the door isn't related to the gasket, but to a drainage issue, any ideas of what i might need to check? i have cleaned the filter, but that didn't work.
