WPW10497235 - Whirlpool Dishwasher Lower Door Seal

This Whirlpool Dishwasher Lower Door Seal (WPW10497235) is a genuine part specifically designed for Whirlpool dishwashers. It is also known as the "Lower Door Seal." Made of gray plastic, this durable seal is located at the bottom of the dishwasher door. It plays a critical role in ensuring a tight seal between the dishwasher tub and the outer edge of the door, effectively preventing water from leaking out during operation. Symptoms indicating the need for replacement include visible damage to the seal or evidence of leaking from the base of the door. For a successful replacement, it's important to shut the dishwasher door and allow the seal to properly adhere for several hours after installation. We suggest checking your dishwasher's model number for compatibility before making a purchase.
