I checked this sight yesterday,02/19/10,for the very same problem.  Water was getting inside the door and leaking out the screw holes on the bottom of the door.  I cleaned out the door vent and two holes on the upper spray arm, both of the very end holes on each end, that were plugged up.  No more leaks.  I am so glad I stumbled across this sight.

Hi callmeal,

I cleaned out the door vent and two holes on the upper spray arm, both of the very end holes on each end, that were plugged up.  No more leaks.

That's great!

I am so glad I stumbled across this sight.

Glad you did too.

Me too!

Leaks from the left side of the door - vent completed blocked with horrible mushy stuff!

So glad this site popped up on my search for a fix.

Hi Brito,

Glad you found us too. 

Thanks for taking the time to post some feedback.

Solved my problem too!

Might want to advise people to make sure that if it has been leaking for a while to take off the front panel make sure that the insulation is not too funky. Mine, I laid it in in the sun for a bit, if i had some mildew suppressant I would have applied some.
