Very helpful video, I have a Beko DFN16420X, and was able to pull out the old lower door seal, and replace with the new seal, without having to unscrew anything, very easy. The dishwasher hadn't gotten to the stage of leaking, but after pulling out the old seal which was in very bad shape, I think I have replaced it just in time. Thank you!
Well done for showing this video .....I’ve got the same problem on my Lamona and the seal feels perished like yours but the wife has D&G insurance on it so we’ve called an engineer out because the switch panel is playing up as well .....without the insurance I would have relied on this demonstration 👏
Thank you for your help with this video..The Asko dishwasher we have, the seal is perished just like yours..I’m just going to order a replacement seal from eBay & use your video to help me install it.. this video is great, as I thought I might have to dismantle the door assembly 1st..😎👍..Many thanks for your help with this..

Beko DIW15x10. Followed these istructions and it was a doddle. Used a woodworking clamp the hold the front and back panels together while I re-attached the door hinges. Thanks
Just a note that on a Zanussi, check model, if the seal is a simple strip (as in this video for the BEKO) then it just pulls out of the slot and can easily be pushed in in about 5 minutes. No screws need removing. Other models have a complex metal/rubber seal that may need the front panel off. There is a zanussi video that shows the main door seal being pulled and replaced in 3 minutes. No screws. The lower door seal is the same. Pull and replace. Just make sure you check the orientation.
If you have door leakage, and chaging the seals does not work for you, then you might need also to check the integrity of the lower spray arm. It what was damged on my dishwasher and it caused a water jet directly to the seal.
Thanks for the video. What did you use the star attachment for? I see from the video, door casing would have been removed with a Phillips? Did that then give access to something else that needed to be released to then access the seal? Thanks
I do mention in the video it is for the screws in the hinges, I have been told you don’t need to loosen the hinges, not sure that’s correct hope this answers your question
@@MrRossYoung44 Thanks so much for getting back to me. So the door casing comes off, which then gives access to being able to loosen the hinges and then access the seal? Did you have to pull the machine out from where it was integrated?
While I'm waiting for my seal to arrive I found this video, thank you, but I didn't understand if you actually have to remove the front panel or if it's enough to loosen those 4 screws
It is just a push fit on a Zanussi (which I think is the same manufacturer) with the simple rubber strip (no complex metal bits). Just pull the old one out check the orientation and push the new one into the slot. 3 minute job. Mind fingers on the sharp metal slot edge. This video at least tells you what’s what but helped to confirm that no need to unscrew anything. The Zanussi video shows how to replace the main door seal in the same way.
Be very wary of this solution. The hinge has two set screws which fix the hinge to the door. When you remove the screws the end of the hinge pressed against the thin stainless steel door pressing with a very substantial force and deforms the pressing. When reassembling it is only possible to reinsert one of the two screws. I eventually had to dismantle the spring assembly behind the side panel and enlist the help of my son. I believe the seal can be simply pulled off and replaced as it's a push fit. BEFORE UNSCREWING ANYTHING TRY PULLING THE SEAL OFF.
Not sure why as I didn't have a problem just make sure you support the door properly, I note also a number of people have said they've slid the seal in without the need the slacken off the screws to the hinges to much.
inside . you can see it on the video step by step .....i was looking to now its a few jears later ...................... but now is mine broking and i also want to see were the lip was
Hi thanks for the video, my like had got progressively worse so ordered the part and bit the bullet. Good news is that you can do it by just pulling out the old seal and pushing in the new one but just ensure you get it the right way round, simple fix albeit a cut finger 😢
Thank you for posting this! Took the seal out for an overdue clean and couldn’t for the life of me work out how to get it back in!!!
@@emilymugfordmrcvs8606 glad it proved useful for you 👍

I have a Beko DFN28R21 and very glad I read the comments first, as I didn’t need to dismantle anything at all - it’s a straight pull out push in

Best comment for this video. Just saved my self the cost of a new machine. The lower spray arm had a crack and was over coming both old and new seal

@@neilward7616 yes the seal slides onto the inner door casing
@@neilward7616 No I left the machine in position
Did you have to feed the seal back in from the side or did it just clip in from the front?

I just loosened mine I didn’t need to remove it good luck it’s fairly straight forward not as difficult as you might think

Hi do you have a link for the seal you got
On the zanussi web site? For Zanussi that is.
Which way did you face the flat flange end? Towards inside or outside
inside . you can see it on the video step by step .....i was looking to now its a few jears later ...................... but now is mine broking
and i also want to see were the lip was
@@bernoberno8777 waited 3 years for a reply thanks xD
Very helpful just fixed mine 💪

Yep I was able to just push my new one in place. Was freaking out as I had seen videos of taking screws out etc.
I fed it in from the side...repair is straight forward
