I have a Bosch Nexxt WFMC3200UC/01 washing machine and I am trying to find a door seal. Mine has black mold all over it. I have tried calling some local appliance stores, but no one had it. The one store that did said it was 103.37 for the part. Is there anywhere else to find one for cheaper?
Call the Customer Service number located in your manual. Discribe to them what you have said here and they will send one to you for FREE! This is a problem that should NOT happen. Moving forward, once you get it spray it down with Lysol Mold and Mildew Prevention and let it dry a couple of days before you install it. :-)

yes bleach and a very hot wash. but remember mold grows in damp /wet so always leave door and soap draw open when machine is not in use this will dry out parts and cut down on mold growth ,
The only solution here is for you to replace the door seal, and in future, do more high temp washes, as the prob is caused by doing too many low temp washes, ie: 40--50 degree temp washes, this causes build up of bacteria and the like.

Tilt the m/c back and remove the clamp securing the seal to the front of the cabinet, double the seal back inside the washer door opening, and then pull the retaining spring off the inside of the door seal which is fitted in a groove at the back of the seal.
Refit the new seal starting at the topmake sure the seal is fittef the right way up, drainage holes to the bottom.
Work the seal on all the way round the drum, and then roll the spring into the groove at the back of the seal and work it round all the way round the seal, you will find it easier if you have someone to help hold the spring in place..
Refit the seal round the front of the cabinet,and refit clamp at front.
Plz rate this solution.
Thanks.
