Leaking - Front - Right Side - Dishwasher

Possible Solution

Are there items between the door seal and the tub of the dishwasher?

  • Check that no items, such as silverware, are stuck between the door seal on the dishwasher door and the dishwasher tub. This will cause the door not to shut or seal properly. 
  • Check both racks for items that may be stuck and protruding. Remove any item that is protruding outside the rack.
  • Check for large food particles around the door seal. Large items could cause the door not to shut or seal properly.

Is the Dishwasher Level?

Make sure the dishwasher is level. The dishwasher must be supported by the leveling legs/wheels that must be flat on the floor. The dishwasher must also be square in the cabinet. The door will not seal properly if the tub opening is not square. This is the responsibility of the customer or installer.

Are you using improper dishwasher detergent, was too much detergent used, or has rinse aid spilled in the tub?

Do not use hand soap or laundry detergents. Use automatic dishwasher detergents only.
