A Canton homeowner called about their Frigidaire dishwasher that leaks water in floor when using dishwasher. We found the door seals had failed, allowing water to escape during wash cycles.
The Problem
The customer reported that their dishwasher leaks water in floor when using dishwasher. Water was pooling on the kitchen floor after running wash cycles.
Diagnosis
We inspected the door seals and found the 3 seal pieces along the inside of the bottom of the door had deteriorated. These gaskets create the watertight barrier between the door and tub, and when they fail, water escapes onto the floor during operation.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: 154701001-SPLASH SHIELD KIT, 809006501-GASKET
- Work performed: I replaced the 3 seal pieces along the inside of the bottom of the door
- Result: Problem solved
Is It Worth Repairing?
This Frigidaire dishwasher is worth repairing. Door seal replacement is a straightforward fix that addresses a common wear issue. Frigidaire dishwashers typically provide reliable service for many years when properly maintained, making this repair cost-effective compared to replacement.
Maintenance Tips for Frigidaire Dishwashers
- Check door seals monthly for cracks or buildup that could prevent proper sealing
- Run monthly cleaning cycles with Frigidaire-approved dishwasher cleaner
- Clean the filter regularly to prevent clogs that can cause water backup
