Simple/Free DIY Leaky Dishwasher Fix | Samsung DW80R2031US

  • My new Samsung dishwasher (model DW80R2031US) was leaking and it was driving me nuts. I pulled it apart and found the problem. The dishwasher anchor screws were set too tight. This caused gaps in its seal and lead to water trickles. Once I backed out the set screws a little bit, my seepage issues disappeared. The solution was simple and free. Try doing this before you go out and buy a new dishwasher. I suspect this same trick will work for all brands and models of washers.

    I'm thinking of getting this machine , and I was looking at reviews for that dishwasher on one of those big box stores and a lot of people complained about leaks, that no professionals seems to be able to fix. Thank you for the information

      Please, never buy a Samsung appliance. They are just complete garbage. I've had to replace my samsung fridge and samsung dishwasher at this point, I will never buy from them again.

    Good Detective work! I'm sure this will help someone. You are sweet to share your find.
    I am too cheap to own a dishwasher, as I plan on goinging off grid soon & live like a pioneer. For those who you have helped, they will be extremely grateful.

    DUDE YOU'RE AWESOME!!! I have the same model and havent been able to run it fully. I got a pro over here and he said it was a roller gasket that is on back order for 2 weeks and the repair bill was going to be $367 !!!!!! FOR A FLIPPING WASHER!!! I took it apart and realized the screws were barely finger tight. tightened them down and presto runs without errors.

    That's what plumbers do. Replace. Good on ya. I could tell so many plumber stories having been a landlord and service tech as well as Master Electrician. Fortunately I was smarter than they were and never trusted 90% of them. Saved a small fortune.

    Thanks for your video. Although it was a different issue. This gave us an idea about the seal. It turns out the seal is the culprit. Having so much dirt stuck on it caused the leak

    Thanks for sharing this. I love my Samsung dishwasher but sometimes it leaks exactly at the same spot yours did. I will ask my son to help me fix this being he installed it. It's strange but it doesn't do it every time. My son told me to make sure the seals were clean and so I check but yet it still happens sometimes.

      Make sure you do your homework. After troubleshooting and fixing mine, I found that some brands are made by the same parent company so they will be alot alike mechanically. Good luck to you :)

      @@melissadavis3231 TY, I’m still not sure which brand I’m going to purchase yet, my husband is leaning toward the Bosch 800’s series with the slot, instead of a handle, so the Bosch logo will be hidden on the inside, and there’s no handle to look mismatched, be safe out there..
