It is listed for the LF8C1612A and LF9C1612AQ, and for the LF9A1612AC. The seal forms the watertight link between the door opening in the cabinet and the outer tub, so a torn or perished one is a common cause of leaks at the front of the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAEG washer leaking from the door? Inspect the door seal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery time the drum turns, the door seal flexes and is washed with hot water and detergent. Over the years the rubber can tear, perish or be cut by coins, underwire and zips, and mould can eat into the folds where water sits. Typical signs are water dripping from the bottom of the door during the wash, puddles under the front of the machine, a musty smell that cleaning does not shift, or black mould that has worked deep into the rubber. Look inside the folds with a torch, as small splits often hide there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine AEG part 140004668145\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDoor seal, also called the bellows or door boot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListed for AEG LF8C1612A and LF9C1612AQ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso listed for the AEG LF9A1612AC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eChanging the door seal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnplug the washer and turn off the taps. Remove the outer clamp from the front of the seal, then peel the seal off the cabinet lip. The inner edge is held to the tub by a second clamp, which may need the front panel removed for good access. Line up the new seal using any alignment marks, fit the inner edge and clamp first, then the outer. Run a rinse cycle and check for leaks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I just clean the mould off my old seal?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSurface mould can often be cleaned off, but if it has stained deep into the rubber or the seal is split, cleaning will not stop leaks or smells for long.
