Hi,the door seal is held in place with a wire with spring on it,just open door get hold of rubber witch is attatched where door closes,
if you pull on the rubber at the edge you will see the wire you will have to get a flathead screwdriver to prise it out,once you take the metal band off just pull the rubber off,then if you pull on the rubber the inside bit of the rubber will come out.
hope this was some help.
Hi this is quite a common problem, you have a couple of options you can either go out and buy a new door rubber seal or if it one of those seals where you can get you hand in between two parts of the seal then what you can do is get some thick string and run this in the middle of the seal doing this will pack the seal out a bit and then when the door is shut this will make a lot better seal and it will then stop the water getting in.
let me know if you need further assistance ok
ps the rubber seal isnt to expensive to buy but even a new rubber may still have the same problem as its more to do with the way the door is fitted and it seems it dont push the seal hard enough to prevent water getting in so i have found packing it out with some thick string or twine will push the seal out more and will seal it properly when you shut the door to
plz rate this solution as i have a whole page of unrated posts, thanks
not sure why the seal is faulty but yes you can buy a rubber seal for the door go to your local hardware store you might have to look in the section that stops drafts from entering a room or rubber flex material with a adhesive tape that can be formed into any shape eg around a outlet pipe or to seal a window etc and you can always trim some rubber sealer to fit if its a little large . I used a foam roll with adhesive tape to seal my freezer door on a mini bar fridge and its still in use today
I would suggest using a blunt object to clear the drainage holes in the rubber seal. I'd advise against removing the seal for this problem. LG has special pliers to remove the spring loaded wire from around the front of the door seal and another for the larger size one where the rubber seal attaches to the outer drum. The second one is much harder to reattach, even somewhat difficult with the washer's front off if you do not have the special pliers.
Which hose are we talking about? If you're talking about the small rubber hose at the top center of the door seal, HOW is it leaking? Is there a hole in the hose? Is the door seal itself damaged? Let me know a little more so I can give you the proper advice.
whats the problem and what appliance
