Part 12054183 Dishwasher Door Gasket Seal
Purpose
Creates a tight, watertight seal between tub and door.
Details
The 12054183 is a genuine OEM upper door gasket (also called a tub seal) designed for dishwashers. It channels and locks water inside the tub cavity during aggressive wash, rinse, and steam cycles. Over time, constant exposure to grease, detergents, and high temperatures can cause the rubber material to become brittle, dry-rotted, or physically split. Common symptoms of failure include water visibly leaking or pooling onto the kitchen floor from the sides or top of the door, excess moisture or condensation building up on nearby countertops, or an unlevel door seating. Replacing this press-fit gasket restores original retention, prevents property damage, and optimizes interior pressure.
Included Items
One upper tub door gasket. Required tools: None (manual press-fit installation).
