- This video shows how I fixed my Samsung model DW80F800UWS dishwasher from leaking water out of the white steam vent in the front under the door.
I have also found out this repair also works on the Samsung model DW80J3020US dishwasher as well.
If you liked the video and it helped, please give it a "thumbs up". I always like hearing if this helped folks out, so let me know and leave a comment below. Thanks for watching!

I would just like to thank you so much. You saved me from being impulsive and buying new dishwasher. Mine has been ripping water at the vent escape!!!!!!!! My grandpa found your video and I cleaned the diaphragm and instantly no leaking….. you guys please try this it works!!!!!!!!!! I will be doing this every few weeks thank you again
I am so glad this fix worked for you! Thank you for letting myself and my viewers/subscribers know you liked it!
Wonderful video. I have cleaned the filter, inspected the seals, have taken it out to look for leaks, let it sit for weeks to dry out and nothing stopped the HEAVY indication or the leaks. This took about 15 minutes and last night, no leaks from the left side, AND no water spilling out when I open it in the morning from the steam vent. THANKS. I was very close to buying another one because of the frustration.
You're very welcome. I am glad that after all these years of this video being on RUclips that it is still helping people out.
In a million years I would never had gone this route but my dishwasher had this very leak a few days ago and this fixed it. Thank you so very much, saved me a lot of headache and money!!!
J B You’re very welcome. I am glad this helped you out as well.
Worked for DW80J3020US as well. We had the Heavy light blinking indicating a leak. Thanks very much!
I am glad that this was able to help with another model. I will add this to the video description so others with the DW80J3020US might find it as well. Thank you for the comment.
Thank you so much. We just sold our house and the same thing was happening here but thanks to your vid I was able to fix it in time! Thank you sir.
You’re welcome! It always is nice to know this is still helping people!
Our dishwasher is fixed! It took longer to watch the video than to do the fix and it worked! Our diaphragm seal was compromised due to calcium buildup. Thank you very much for your help!
Patricia,
I am glad this fix helped you out with getting your dishwasher back in service again. Thanks again for the comment.
you don't even know how much I love you after this video. I was ready to go to get new dishwasher. Thank you.
Viola, Thanks for the positive feedback. I am glad you were able to get some help from my video. I never knew this many people would have the same issue I did. Thanks again!
The cover and diaphragm were both incredibly dirty. (We bought the house with the dishwasher) Thank you!
You're very welcome. I am glad the video helped you out.
This clip helped to solve my case which is 10 times worse under that round cover. My Samsung dishwasher is 9 years old and never got any cleaning or maintenance under that round area.
That is great news that this helped get your machine back up and running in good condition. Thanks for letting me know!
Doubted it.. but it was the fix! Thanks.. you saved me money and time! Still can't believe thats all it was. Awsomesause!!!
That is good news for sure! Thanks for the feedback.
This was extremely helpful! Bought this unit new, never cleaned that out for four years. It was leaking pretty bad. This fixed it instantly! Also, good tip on making sure the fins are put back properly. Knowing my luck I would have put it on backwards if you hadn’t mentioned that. Thanks for the video. You tube actually can be useful, it’s just not full of trolls!
You’re very welcome. I am glad this helped out.
Amazing easy fix for a problem that has been plaguing me. We were about to give up and call for a certainly expensive tech visit.
That is awesome! Glad that you were able to get things fixed up and keep a little $$$ in your pocket too.
I've saved a small fortune knowing how to fix this. I've done this several times and it works every time. Thanks!
That is awesome! I am glad to hear that it is paying off. Thanks for letting me know.
Thanks. This worked so far. Had to reassemble after repositioning to avoid massive leak and tighten screw just enough. But I'm so glad to know I don't need to buy a new dishwasher, which my husband was ready to do.
That is good to hear. I love fixing things around the house versus replacing them until it doesn't make sense financially. Thank you for letting me know this worked well for you.
Awesome!! Can't thank you enough. Was about to replace the seal at the bottom of the door. There wasn't a lot of gunk in there, similar to what you had in your video, but cleaning it did the trick. Thanks a million
Very cool! I am glad that you were able to get things all fixed up. Thanks for letting me know this worked for you.
Never had this but happy to know in case in future we might need to verify this too. Thank u
Exactly what i needed. THANKS!!! Was about to get a new dishwasher since it's cheaper than the service guy.
You're welcome.
Same exact problem. Thank you for the video. 5 minute fix. No more leaks.
michissa105 Thank you very much for the feedback. I am glad this helped you out.
Thank you meridianjumper !! You rock. When I opened mine up, the plastic vent was 30% obstructed with gunk. The rubber seal had 10x more than yours did in the video. I haven't tested yet, but I am confident that this is going to work !! Thanks very much.
That is good to hear that you were able to find and clean out that area in your dishwasher. I am glad to know that this little tip was helpful.
Thanks so much for creating this video. I found that there was paper in the diaphragm assembly. My wife washed a jar with a label on it and the paper label ended up in the diaphragm. Thanks again. You saved me tons of money.
That is awesome! I am glad you were able to get that all fixed up without having to call the service guy/gal and spend money when fixing your stuff is much more fun and rewarding. :-)
Thank you so much for this video.. saved me from calling the repair man. Its on it first run after cleaning and no leaks.. thanks again..
You're welcome! I am glad my fix was able to help you out with your issue. Wash on!
Thank you! I just cleaned this based on your video! It was a mess and now I expect this will fix my issue! Never knew how this worked.
I hope that this was the fix for the issue you were having.
Yes, this did fix my problem! Thanks again, Jeremy Gardner!
Brilliant, just saved me a whole pile of time and trouble. Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback! I am glad that this was helpful to you.
Responsively
Well done, fixed mine, thanks for the video
That is great news!
THANK YOU!!!! You just saved me an $80 trip fee, $80 labor fee not to mention whatever they wanted to charge for parts!!!
You are very welcome! I am always glad to hear from folks that this has helped out of a jam (or a wet floor).
Thank you for the video. It appears to have fixed the leaking issue. Although I have now noticed an odd grinding sound near the end of a cycle. Seems to be coming from the area around the steam vents.
You're welcome.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! This fixed my leak.
You're welcome.
thank you for taking the time and sharing the attention to detail..i just may be able to help my girlfriend with her washer..thank you!
Brent Howard Thanks for the feedback. I am glad that this helped you out.
Nice and clear video! Thanks.
Thank you. It was a very impromptu video and the quality wasn't the best but I wanted to get the info out there.
Thanks for the vedio, it worked! My Samsung dishwasher is a different model, but diaphragm part is the same. 🌹🌹👍
That is good to hear!
I am very glad I came upon this video after searching for a fix for my Samsung dishwasher (model DW80F600). Although I have run it once since doing your fix, it seems like it leaked more. I will give an update after I run it a second time as you suggested.
How did it work after the second cleaning?
@@meridianjumper not any better. I had to have the whole inside of the door replaced. It works perfectly fine now.
Very HELPFUL!! THANKS
You're welcome.
Amazing! Thanks for the video. Mine was full of crud!
You're welcome.
I have a different model, same problem tho. This 100% worked for me! Thanks for the video
I am glad to hear this fix worked for you. What model do you have so I can include it in the video description?
I do not know if that diaphragm was dirty enough to be the cause of the leak, but it was certainly dirty enough to need a cleaning. Thanks for the short, educational video on cleaning that out!
You're welcome.
Thanks you very much .I follow you and I fix my dishwasher.
Awesome! I am glad to hear this worked for you.
Thanks for all your time and research in troubleshooting this issue. I had the same problem with mine and after watching You Tube videos, just cleaned the debris from behind the round access panel and the white plastic vent with a round food brush and it is not leaking now. Apparently this is a know issue and when I called Samsung customer service they should have recommended this fix but instead had NISI an Authorized Repair center contact me to provide service which they quoted; "$80 trip and diagnostic and $80 for labor plus parts and tax". I also own a Samsung refrigerator with other issues as well, I ALSO WILL NOT BE PURCHASING ANYMORE SAMSUNG KITCHEN APPLIANCES!

Andy Wagman, I am glad that this fix helped you out.
You are my HERO! It worked like a charm!😁👍👍👍👍
Edit: is there a fix for the bottom right vents? Totally fixed leaks from the middle vents but the vents to the right let go a few drops
That is good to hear. I have had issues with the bottom vents too but fixed that before I did this video. I no longer have the dishwasher either as I have moved houses.
Thank you for the video, would have never thought to look here. Unfortunately my leaking still remains. It seems the diaphragm is weak and not pushing onto the sides very well. Hmm
Thank you sir. Mine was full of gunk as well.
You're welcome.
Having this problem with my dishwasher. Took the plate off and eww!!!, loaded with gunk. Even if it doesn't fix my leak (haven't run it yet) am glad to know how gross this area gets so I can keep on top of it
That is good to hear. I hope this fixes the issue and your washer is good to go.
Thank you, it work.
You're welcome.
This fix did the trick, leaked a little as the water was cleared out. Only by Samsung appliances if you like to do repair work. Fridge has broke 4 time (ice maker cover, Mullion spring, warped drawer and something in the back that was making lots of noise) The last two were early on and covered by warrantee. Second time the dishwasher has broke, first time the drain pump jammed. Control nodes for the stove are on order and we've only owned these for about 3 1/2 years.
Brian, I am glad that this video helped you out. This was a constant issue we dealt with for a few months. We didn't have the money to pay a repair company to just swap parts and hope for the best. I have to do this "repair" every couple of months as the junk starts to build up but knowing how to do it now saves me some time. Thanks again for the shout out and good news that this helped you out.
Thanks dude...you just saved me $250...
You're welcome.
Thanks so much for your advice. I followed your instructions. So much gunk - gross! I hope it works. If not, I suspect it could be the rubber gasket along the bottom of the dishwasher door. I was wiping it to remove gunk and pieces of rubber broke off. I guess it has lost elasticity over the years and become brittle. There is now a gap along the bottom edge. I'm wondering if that rubber piece (different from the gasket along the sides and top) will need replacement? Happy Easter, folks.
How did everything work after you cleaned it out?
Thank you
You're welcome!
thanks, mine was very dirty but it also leak on the right side, the other vent. I am looking into that section- to see where it comes from. Water is cold.
I have this exact same model, do you find that a lot of debris gets caught at the bottom of the door in front of the river seal? I constantly have to wipe down the area
I do find the same issue with lots of debris getting caught up in there. I am not sure if it is a design fault of Samsung or not. I had looked at the angle of mine with a level to see if it was leaning out a little more causing the junk to flow to the front and found that I needed to make a small adjustment to raise the front end a little to make it more even overall. This seemed to help a little bit every month or so, I do a full detail cleaning of that area now.
FYI. The lid doesn’t need taken off. Just push down on it and spin it off. The white plastic piece comes off with it. The under side of the lid has lips that catch like teeth and help it off.
Boy I hope this is my problem. I'm 90% sure it is. I just check my dishwasher and it's exactly the same door guts. Yes it's a samsung. I'll do it tomorrow morning. Thank you
How did the repair work for you?
Mine seams to be stuck down doesnt even come up so I'm gonna have to open the whole thing do you recommend to put a new rubber seal in .
I was able to clean the seal well enough to make it work. I would suggest really cleaning yours first before looking at replacing.
I hope this solves the issue I was checking the bottom for leaks as the moisture sensor was being activated and could not find any issues other than dirt around the door. When I checked this location there was definitely build up. Running test now.
Sounds good. Let me know if it worked for you.
Ok ran second test and it leaked again, however upon checking found additional gunk at door bottom gasket, which I cleaned. Have run another test and 2 loads of dishes since and appears repaired. THANK YOU
@@r.wilson8275 That is great news and good to hear!
I just took mine apart and it was certainly dirty. Next wash will tell if it's fixed and I am hopeful'
I am curious to find out how things went with the cleanout. Keep me posted on the results please.
Me too
Is there supposed to be any water going through the diaphragm or is it just steam?
Should just be steam only. If water is splashing out through there, you have a problem.
Mine doesn't have the little black diaphragm part. When I take off that top plastic grill, it's just a white plastic piece under there.
What model dishwasher do you have?
What the heck. My samsung washer is a different model but it does not have that black pressure valve after taking off the white cover
Does anyone know how to tell if the rubber diaphragm is too weak to hold back water? My seal is perfectly clean but still leaks water. Maybe it's the actuator not pushing it strong enough??? Frustrating.
Worked for us. It was all gunked up
That is good news to hear that you were able to clear it all out.
Well, we have been suffering from our Samsung dishwasher as well. Spend a money as equal to value of the dishwasher so far. Every technician comes with different diagnostic result. Never recommend any one to waste their money to buy Samsung dishwasher.
I totally agree with you. I purchased a "NEW DISH WASHER" to avoid any repairs or headaches and it's only been a year and my new SAMSUNG Dish Washer is leaking water ☹️...... Now I have to call and go through the hassle to get a technician to fix my water leaking issue. ( my old dish washer never leaked )
We had all our samsung appliances fail.
Good tablets but for the mecanical department go with maytag
I think that there has been a lot of the issues from Samsung appliances being due to design issues.
Thanks
Sadly it’s still leaking
Sorry to hear that. Maybe there is something else going on.
I'm tired of fixing these Samsung's, maytag from here on out. Samsung breaks two months after warranty expires.
I agree. I have had issues with Samsung products all across their product line. Not a fan but learned how to work on them.
