Water on the laundry floor after a wash often traces back to a torn door seal. This genuine Electrolux group bellow seal, part 8588071200030, fits the Simpson SWF12743 and SWF12843, the SWF14743 and SWF14843, and the Electrolux EWF12763E front loaders. It is also listed under 4055690756, 8071200029 and 807120001, so check for any number printed or moulded on your old seal if you are unsure.

Front loader leaking from the door?

The bellow seal is the rubber boot that joins the front of the tub to the cabinet opening and seals against the door glass when it closes. It flexes with every spin, and over time the folds can split, especially at the bottom where water and lint sit. Coins, bra wires and hair clips also cut through it. Signs of a failing seal include water pooling under the door, black mould that won't clean off, a musty smell and visible tears. A seal damaged on the outer lip can also leak during the fill.

Tips for fitting the door seal

Unplug the machine and turn off the taps. The seal is held by an outer clamp band around the cabinet opening and an inner band at the tub, and the front panel may need to come off to reach the inner clamp. Position the new seal the same way as the old one, using any alignment marks on it, seat it fully on the tub lip, then refit both clamps. Run a rinse cycle and check for leaks.

Questions about this part

Can I repair a small tear instead?

Patching a split seal rarely lasts, because the rubber keeps flexing with every spin and the tear spreads. Replacing the seal is the reliable fix, and it also clears away the mould that builds up in old folds.
