In most LG front-load washers, the door boot seal (also called a bellow or gasket) forms a watertight barrier between the drum and the door glass. When it tears, cracks, or develops mold-damaged holes, water escapes onto the floor with every wash cycle. ⚡ One of the most frequently replaced parts on LG WM, F, FH, and GCW series front-load washers. Part 4738ER2002A is the genuine OEM LG replacement that restores a complete watertight seal and stops door leaks immediately.

Any debris or old rubber residue left behind will prevent the new seal from seating flush, which can cause a slow leak to return within weeks. A clean, dry surface is the single biggest factor in a long-lasting repair. Part Details ConditionOEM Use a qualified technician when diagnosis or installation is outside your experience.

This is the correct fix if ALL of the following are true: Not sure? Send us your model number — we'll confirm before you order. ✔ If these symptoms match, this is the most likely failed component in the system. ✔ In most cases, replacing this door boot seal stops the leak completely and restores normal operation immediately. Skill Level: MODERATE — 45–75 minutes. Disconnect power before servicing. Remove the front panel or top panel depending on model to access the spring clamp retaining the boot seal. Release the clamp, peel the old seal off the drum lip and door frame, clean the mounting surfaces thoroughly, seat the new seal starting at the bottom, and reinstall the spring clamp. A flat-head screwdriver and needle-nose pliers are typically required.
