Part Information

Washer door boot MDS47123604 is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part that fits some front-load washers in these series: Kenmore Elite 796; and LG WM336 and WM355.

Door boot MDS47123604 forms a seal between the wash tub and the door, preventing leaks.

Spring clamps attach the door boot to the front panel on one side and the washer tub on the other. Open the washer door, remove the outer spring clamp and then pull off the washer front panel to remove the door boot from the tub.

Works now'

Very difficult to install, there are two springs (inner and outer) that need to be removed and put back on when changing it out. The outer spring need a special tool ($20) but the inner spring also needs a special tool which I could not seem to find. Long story short, after about two hours of messing around with other tools I finally got it back on. There are a few videos out there on replacing it but none of them seem to capture this stupid design. It obviously needs the spring to make it water tight but they could of just used a different non-tool specific one'

Not as easy to install as the video...
January 10, 2019

The video makes it look way too...easy. The guy practically tosses it into place like a frisbee....No. Can you do it?...yes. Is it easy?....meh. Take pictures of what that boot looks like before you remove the two metal retaining bands (outer / inner)...know how they go back on. Pay attention to how the inside rubber lip of the door boot is flush against the plastic outer tub...that is the key to correctly sealing the door boot system and getting the inner retaining band in place without that special tool is a nightmare...doable...but have a tourniquet handy for the finger you're about to take a plug out of with that pair of vise grip pliers you are tugging on! If the inside seal looks any different from flush...you've done it wrong and get a shopvac ready to vacuum up several gallons of water from your laundry room floor. Ask me how I know....find the right groove to press the inner boot onto and you'll get it to look flush like in the video.

Perfect fit.

Not as easy as I thought. Looks easy but you have to be carefull to align the top and bottom so that it drains properly. Also the springs that hold the gasket were challenging to secure.

Very Difficult to install need lg's tools!
May 03, 2018

Hard to take put back on the inner and outer rings with springs that hold this gasket in and make water tight seal. 2 different tools for 2 different springs. the tools cost me $155. You can also take your old moldy gasket, put it in a bucket with a gallon of bleach and water for 24hrs, comes out like brand new.
