Musty smells, a split in the rubber or water on the laundry floor all point to a worn door seal. 140004668228 is the genuine Electrolux bellows for front loaders such as the EWF1042BDWA and EWF1042R7WB, the EWF1041R9WB and EWF1041ZDWA, and the EWF9042R7WB. It also carries the service number A00466822. Check your model against the listed models before ordering, as door seals differ between Electrolux ranges.

Electrolux front loader door seal leaking or mouldy?

Every time the door closes, the glass presses into this seal to keep water inside the drum while it fills, washes and spins. Soap residue and trapped moisture in the folds feed mould, which eventually stains the rubber for good. Sharp items left in pockets cut into it, and age makes it stiff and prone to cracking. A leak that only appears during the wash, puddles in front of the door, or a seal that's visibly torn or stretched are the usual signs. Wiping the folds dry after washing and leaving the door ajar helps the new seal last.

Changing the door seal

Switch off and unplug the washer. Lever off the outer clamp ring from the front of the seal and fold the rubber back, then open up the machine to reach the inner clamp where the seal meets the drum. Mark how the old seal sits before pulling it out. Fit the new one in the same position, refit both clamps and test with a rinse.
