Description
Maintain a watertight seal on your front-load washer door with the LG 2W20017E Door Boot Spring Clamp Assembly. This genuine OEM retaining ring is a crucial component that holds the outer edge of the rubber door boot seal tightly against the washer's front panel. If the original clamp has rusted, corroded, or lost its tension, water may leak from the door seam during operation. This part is a direct replacement for various LG and Kenmore washer models.
Features & Benefits:
- Leak Prevention: Secures the door boot seal with the proper tension to prevent water leakage during high-speed cycles.
- Durable Steel Construction: Made from high-quality metal designed to resist rust and maintain tension over time.
- OEM Match: Ensures an exact fit for the specified LG and Kenmore washer door seals.
- DIY Repair: Replacement is a common, relatively fast repair, though it may require specialized pliers or a screwdriver.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement:
- Water leaks from the front door area during the wash or rinse cycles.
- The door boot seal is visibly loose, damaged, or pulling away from the cabinet.
