The Dishwasher Door Gasket functions as a genuine OEM replacement part, ensuring compatibility with GE dishwashers under brands such as Hotpoint, General Electric, and Sears-Kenmore. Positioned between the opening of the dishwasher tub and the outer edge of the door, this essential component guarantees a secure seal to prevent leakage during operation.
Measuring 89 inches in length and 1/16 inch in width, this gasket is specifically designed for certain dishwasher models, making it an effective solution for replacing worn or damaged gaskets prone to leaks.
For installation, begin by removing the existing gasket and thoroughly cleaning its groove to ensure proper seating. After fitting the new gasket, close the dishwasher door and leave it closed for several hours, enabling the gasket to conform securely and preserve the appliance's efficiency and longevity.
Additionally, if a short 4-inch gasket segment is required for the bottom center section, part number WD08X10015 should be ordered.
