Remove the front panel and door boot clamp rings (inner and outer) to release the old gasket from the tub and door lip. Clean the mounting channel thoroughly before installing the new gasket. Seat the new WG04A04082 into the tub groove first, then work the outer lip over the door frame and reinstall both clamp rings.

After installing WG04A04082, run a monthly tub clean cycle with a washer cleaner tablet and leave the door ajar between washes to allow the gasket to dry completely. This single habit can double gasket service life.\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"GE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50282330849569,"sku":"WG04A04082","price":125.14,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0897\/7783\/2225\/files\/GE_Washer_Door_Gasket_WG04A04082_Stop_Leaks_Mold_Fast.png?v=1781640597","url":"https:\/\/xpartsupply.com\/products\/wg04a04082-ge-washer-door-gasket","provider":"XPart Supply Ltd.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
