I have a slow drip at the bottom of my front load washer door (Maytag Epic Z). It leaks through the bottom of the door and drips down the front of the washer onto the floor. Has done it since I bought it over a year ago - do I need to replace the seal? If yes, how do I do that?

DO NOT USE FLEX SEAL !!!!! If you put it in the washer you will destroy the pump and housing. Your door seal has gone bad, replace it$25-40$

Sounds like a hose leak inside the machine. Possibly remover front bottom cover then check all hose connections.

It's probably the seal. Here is a link to the part.

The door seal is leaking and it is either installed incorrectly or just needs to be replaced. If the machine is under warranty, call the service people now. Hope this helps

I do not think this is normal. This may be a sign that your water fill valve is going bad. I would recommend shutting off your water supply valves when not in use and do not leave unattended when in use in case it gets worse. I would get repaired as soon as possible.

Check the door seal for tears and the drain boot from tub to drain boot for anything that might have put a hole in like a piece of metal from an under wire bra which front loads will spin so fast that the wires come out of the bras.

Take a look at the video on this page http://www.appliance-repair-it.com/Maytag-tub-seal.html

the door has a series of small holes in the front bottom lip of the door gasket these are for drainage if they get clogged the door will drip water clean them and, remember to use HE soap

this will more likely be your door seal open the door pull your seal so u can see inside and feel around as u look u will more than likely find a hole the water looks like it comes from somewhere else but it will be from the hole in the door seal seen this with hundreds of washers m8

Is your problem a SLOW FILL problem, or a problem with WATER DRIPPING FROM THE RUBBER DOOR SEAL - or BOTH? If you have a slow fill problem, this is generally caused by a bad fill valve, which can be attributed to hard water deposits or well water mineral deposits. Sometimes the fill valve can be removed, cleaned and reinstalled, but most of the time a new fill valve is required. If you are experiencing water leaking from the rubber door seal (bellow), it may be time to replace it. Sometimes the seal can develop a wrinkle or crease where it meets the glass, which can cause leaks. Water dripping from the door when you open after washing a load is normal. Water dripping during a load is NOT. The bellow may also have started to rip or tear inside the door which may not be noticeable until you pull the folds of the bellow back and look underneath it. I hope this helps.
