Over time the rubber degrades, tears, or develops mold that can't be cleaned away. OEM part MDS66290801 is manufactured to the exact LG specification, ensuring a precise fit and full restoration of the door seal without modification.

✓ Common Symptoms Fixed

✓ Installation Tips

Disconnect power to the washer before beginning. Remove the front panel or door trim ring to access the existing boot clamp. Note the orientation of the drain port at the bottom before removing the old gasket — the new gasket installs in the same position. Clean the drum lip and door frame thoroughly before seating the new boot. Reinstall the spring clamp firmly around the full perimeter to prevent leaks. Run a short rinse cycle to confirm no leaks before reassembling panels.
