Dishwasher Door Leaks Mid-Cycle

Water dripping from the dishwasher door during a cycle points to a worn or damaged door gasket.

Worn seals around spray arms and pumps let water escape inside the unit and into the base.

A dishwasher that is not level or not secured properly can leak at the door or connections.

A door gasket that cracks, hardens or tears lets water escape from the front of the dishwasher during cycles.
