Water trickling down front of door when washing

Try turning the water pressure down. If you have high water pressure the water comes into the dispenser to hard and splashes over the front & side of the dispenser draw the trickles down the inside of the front panel out on to the floor. Very common front loader problem.

Before you buy a new $100 door gasket, pull out the soap dispenser tray and look inside the washer where it normally sits. If there is significant soap accumulation (even 3/8 inch), the water can become backed up and trickle down the washer front to the door bottom, making it look like a door leak. Fixed mine this way.

I just received my Samsung WD 8804 front loader washing machine, and during the 3rd wash trial, I noticed the same problem of water trickling down from the base of the front door. I took a closer look and the problem is actually due to a cracked rubber seal, which can be seen through the glass door. I have informed the technician.

Sounds like you may have a bad water valve. Go to http://www.partselect.com/MultiModels.aspx?ModelNum=mah6500&searchTerm=img_54050&RefineSearch=0&imgMfg=Maytag&Page=2 and the water valve will be #14. You can check to see if this is the problem by running a load. After the machine is finnished adding water in the rince cycle, turn the water off to the machine. Let it finnish spinning. Then look to see if the water is still coming in. When a water valve goes bad it can act funny in many differant ways. Your sonds like it may have trash in it that allows it to leak water some of the time. Good luck

It's because of a hole in the door seal body. The water runs down inside the machine and comes under the front of the washing machine

For this first unplugged and then take the top off the washer and there is usually a nut and bolt to undo which is holding a clamp band round the door seal fixing it to the tub.
many cases where the water runs down from the bottom of the door but has in fact come from the soap dispenser but the leak was coming from the door.A thin line of water trickles from the soap dispenser and runs round the door frame to appear as a door seal leak. Make sure this isn't the case.
Thanks.

It dpends. see if you can see any staining on front of cabinet under the door , if you can then yes it will mean new seal.
Another source of water could be water from the dispenser trickling down the front of the m/c.
Another possibility is that you have a leak from under the front of the washer. Put a piece of newspaper under the front of the washer, this should enable you to pinpoint the source of the leak.
Hope this helps
Please leave feed back

no seal in outer door, but that's what you need outer door frame about 300.00 , labor 152.00 buy service smart agreement from sears it will cover parts put to 500.00 it will fix it "less soap plz"

sounds like a bad water inlet valve stuck open and permitting watertto enter even though not on, untill you replace the valve turn off water between uses part number 8181694

the vacuum which is to be created between the door and the tub must be not working......try cleaning the door ..some unwanted things may be blocking this to happen

Start the washer in a cycle. When the door locked light comes on, before unit gets to full of water, see if you can pull door open. If so, you probably have a broken latch. The wax motor is activating the switch, but latch is not actually closing. There was a door latch upgrade for some of these models.
