I have a Bosch Nexxt Washer (model wfmc6400) that has a damaged door gasket. The exterior retainer is very easy to install but I do not know what it takes to completely replace the gasket (internal retainer access or special tools etc.?). Where can I get instructions?

Hi,

I don't have any repair knowledge of these Bosch Brands.

Hopefully we can get a Bosch tech. to join us here to help people who own these units.

Looks a little involved. Doesn't look like you need any special tools other than a T-20. Note the seal is on the main body, not the door, but seals the door.

Here are the steps:

1. Remove hinge cover screws
2. Remove hinge screws
3. Remove door seal spring (hands)
4. Remove door latch screws
5. Carefully remove front shield
6. Remove top front panel screws (T-20) (to make removing front counterweights easier)
7. Remove bottom front panel screws (T-20)
8. Note front panel mounting tabs. Front panels are mounted using 6 plastic tabs 3 on each side. Lift front panels up to remove them. When reassembling front panels, carefully align tabs and don't use excessive force to avoid breaking tabs.
9. Remove front panel
10. Remove door latch
11. Note door latch manual release
(Not sure if you need this info: you can access cable through the drain pump door on bottom right of front. Door lock manual release cable is held to the right side of the drain pump by a clip. Pull on cable to release door.)
12. Remove top counterweight screws
13. Slide out counterweight
14. Note counterweight busing slots in tub
15. Remove front counterweight screws (open end wrench)
16. Note counterweight bushings in tub
17. Remove door seal

Good luck, please let me know how this works out.
