LG Washer Door Seal (MDS47123601)

The LG Washer Door Seal fits around the washer door opening to form a watertight barrier when the door is closed. It keeps wash water inside the tub during fill, wash, and spin. It also helps reduce vibration and noise by cushioning the door area. This seal can fail from wear, pinching, or tearing. Sharp items left in pockets can cut it. Heavy loads can rub and weaken the folds. Mold and detergent buildup can degrade the rubber and stop it from sealing well. The seal can also pull out of its groove after service or repeated door slams. Look for these symptoms to help decide if replacing the door seal matches your issue: Water leaking from the front of the washer, especially during fill or wash Drips or puddles that start near the door opening Visible tears, holes, or cracks in the rubber boot The seal looks warped, loose, or pulled away from the rim Persistent mildew odor around the door area, even after cleaning Clothes coming out with wet streaks or residue from buildup trapped in the folds The door is harder to close, or it does not feel like it seats evenly
