4986ER0004F Washer Door Boot Gasket OEM Parts Compatible with LG and Kenmore Replaces 4986ER0004J 4986ER0004K 4986ER0004N PS3524977

Product was washer boot for LG front load washer which had gone bad. Installation was easy. Slight water leak that seems to easing with use. Working well.

First my install was on an older LG front load washer model WM 2075 SC. This part does fit and is working but this part is for newer model washers. My older model does not have the drain port at the bottom of the gasket, this gasket does have the drain port. Because I could not find the exact fit gasket I plugged the drain port in the bottom of this new seal. I used "The Right Stuff" it is a rubberized silicone product and after cleaning the hole with alcohol, drying it I filled the drain hole/tube with The Right Stuff and let it dry for 24 hours. There is zero pressure to force water to leak so I feel this fix is good for the life of the seal. Other than that on install I used Dawn dish soap as a lubricant to get the inner seal in place. Made all the difference, could not even begin proper install without the Dawn, after application of Dawn the seal slipped right into place. Made it 100% easier. So Far Zero leaks and I am happy with the improvement. Cleaning and filling the drain tube only takes 5 minutes total but then you have to wait 24 hours for full dry so just prepare for the time delay and you are good.

Replaced the boot seal on my Kenmore washer due to previous user not cleaning it and it was beyond saving with mold growth all over. This product arrived in a small box and was squished inside, though it didn't seem to be an issue and went in ok. The hardest part of the install was getting the rings back in place, but otherwise this fit like the original. There is a drain on the bottom, so jut check that this is what you need. There is very slight difference to the original part even though the model numbers match, but I found it didn't make a difference or interfere with anything. Ran it through the sanitizer cycle and no problems encountered. Great replacement.

Worked great for a good price. BUY THE SPRING TOOL! I debated but decided to get it and it make the job SOOO much easier. The price of this one made up for the tool. Only bad thing about his was the packaging. It comes really crammed together and almost creased but let it sit out for a a few hours before install and in comes into shape.

It has broken for the first use after install. Waste time and money

This fit my LG WM2455H perfectly. It has the drain tube at the bottom of the seal to connect to the drain tube on the barrel. Unfortunately, it was not packed for shipping with care. It was folded in a way that put a (so far, weeks later) permanent upward bump right where the drain tube is, meaning it isn't the lowest spot of the seal, so doesn't drain fully. Not as good as OEM.Also, at 11 o'clock on the front of the seal there is a permanent crease from how it was folded in the box.So far it works fine, no leaks.Also, if you are going to change your seal, BUY THE SPECIAL SPRING PLIERS. The front spring is easy enough to do by hand with needle nose pliers, but there's no way I could have done the back seal without the special pliers, and I'm a very handy person with a huge tool chest. The spring stretching pliers are ten bucks, and worth every penny.

Bought my washer used for cheap and found that it had a small tear in the door seal. Took a while to get the old seal out, and you will need a tool to get the spring clamp off. But once that was all done it went on pretty easy. Don't forget to hook up the hose the goes to the seal! Has been working well for a while now of use and abuse.

This gasket ended up being not quite compatible with my LG WM2077CW. It is shown in the product photos, but there is an extra hole at the bottom of the ring, which my previous gasket does not have. So water was just pouring out once installed. We ended up plugging it with silicone for now, but I recommend taking a close look at your existing gasket before trusting this will be completely compatible, even though the product description says it is.
