The 12054183 is the current OEM door sealing component for a wide range of Bosch, Siemens, Gaggenau, and Neff dishwashers. This part supersedes the older 00494772 and 494772 part numbers and is the recommended replacement for any dishwasher that previously used those numbers. When the door seal cracks, hardens, tears, or pulls away from its channel, water leaks from the bottom or sides of the door during the wash cycle. The 12054183 restores the watertight barrier and stops the leak.

The door sealing component sits in a retaining channel around the inner perimeter of the tub opening. When the door closes, it compresses against the seal to create a watertight barrier. The seal must maintain consistent contact pressure around its entire perimeter — any crack, deformation, or gap allows water to escape. On Bosch dishwashers, the door seal is a common wear item, particularly on units over 5 years old where the rubber has hardened from repeated heat cycling during wash and dry cycles.

✓ Common Symptoms Fixed

This sealing component directly resolves: water leaking from the bottom or sides of the dishwasher door, puddles on the floor in front of the dishwasher during a wash cycle, visible cracks or tears in the door gasket, sections of the seal that have pulled away from the retaining channel, and poor cleaning performance caused by heat and water escaping through a failed seal.
