Customer Complaint
The homeowner reached out after tenants reported water leaking from the front of the GE dishwasher. The leak was occurring during normal wash cycles and had become a recurring problem. Cody and Shane were dispatched to Brighton to inspect the unit and determine the cause.
Diagnosis
Cody and Shane inspected the dishwasher and found that the lower door gasket was heavily worn. The lower door gasket seals the bottom edge of the door against the tub opening — it is a separate component from the gasket that runs around the tub opening itself. In this case, the worn gasket had lost its ability to form a proper seal, allowing water to escape from a front corner of the dishwasher during the wash cycle. With the cause confirmed, the team sourced a replacement gasket locally.
Repair
Cody and Shane located a replacement lower door gasket through a local supplier, avoiding the delay of a factory order. They returned the next day, disassembled the door panel to access the gasket channel, removed the worn gasket, and installed the new one. The repair photos document the condition of the original gasket, the steps taken to access the door assembly, and the completed installation.
