Possible Causes
Torn or worn door gasket, foreign object trapped between door glass and seal, loose door seal retaining band, excessive foam (suds) causing overflow
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: unplug the washer and turn off the water supply. Mop up any standing water to prevent slipping.
Step-by-step checks:
- Inspect the door seal: open the door and carefully examine the entire circumference of the rubber gasket. Look for tears, holes, or splits, especially at the bottom.
- Remove foreign objects: check the gap between the inner lip of the seal and the drum for bra wires, coins, or other sharp items. Remove them carefully.
- Check retaining bands: ensure the outer and inner metal or wire bands are tight and properly seated in their grooves. Refit or tighten them if loose.
- Check detergent usage: overdosing or using non-HE detergent can cause excessive foam that appears as a leak. Adjust detergent according to Beko's recommendations.
- Replace the seal if damaged: remove the front retaining band, peel off the old seal, transfer any vent hoses, and fit a new genuine Beko door gasket. Refit the bands securely.
