Dishwasher is leaking from underneath, in the front right corner. Photo attached – water seems to be coming down from this white perforated plastic piece. Any tips?
The leak is coming from the port where the float switch is.
WintonP, Did you resolve your leak? If so, how? I have a WDT790SAYB0 that appears to have the same problem. Not quite four years old now; been going on for over a year.
I have water dripping from the plastic cover. The leak is periodic. Sometimes twice in a week then it may go 8-9 months before it leaks again. I took the door apart and noticed the insulation in the lower portion of the door is damp. That and the fact that is leak is very intermittent, I thought that it might be electrical so I swapped the float switch out. But three weeks later, I’ve got another leak.
Repair guy found nothing wrong and said it could have been the result of a dish or something poking down from the bottom rack and making the arm spin funny. Doesn’t sound like a legit answer to me, but it hasn’t leaked since.
Thanks! I appreciate the reply. I hope that’s true for yours.
About a year ago I contacted a repairman who told me something similar. He also suggested there could be something clogging or diverting spray from one of the nozzles in a direction its not supposed to be spraying. So I cleaned all the ports out, top and bottom. For mine, its the periodic part that’s killing me.
I’m probably going to start throwing parts at it. I think there is a gasket/seal where the float passes through; I’ll probably change that next. But, that doesn’t answer why the door insulation is damp.
Good luck!
