Basch Door Seal

[dellers]

Hi - I have a Bosch WM & I notice the door seal is beginning to come away & that pretty soon it will have to be replaced. If you are handy enough can you do it yourself & if so does anyone know a good place to pick one up.
Thanks.

This is fairly easy on Bosch machines as you can take the front off the cabinet. Remove the retaining wire secured by a spring round the front edge of the seal and pull the seal away from the cabinet orofice. Remove the bottom trim panel and you will see the screws securing the bottom edge of the front panel. On some models you also need to remove the soap drawer and take out the lowest of the 2 or 3 screws thus revealed. The front panel can now be pulled away at the bottom then pulled downward and away. Now you can see what you are doing, actually changing the seal is dead easy.
