LG Washer Door Seal Mold — Problem Overview

The customer reported that the LG washer door seal had developed significant mold buildup. Mold can collect in the folds of a front-load washer seal where moisture and detergent residue remain after washing.

In this case, the condition of the door seal required replacement to restore a clean and properly functioning washer door seal.

Diagnosis of the Issue

The technician inspected the LG washer door seal and evaluated its overall condition to determine whether cleaning or replacement was appropriate.

During the inspection, extensive mold buildup was confirmed on the existing seal. Based on its condition, replacement was selected as the appropriate solution.

The problem was isolated to the door seal, allowing the technician to proceed with replacement.
