    Maytag Dishwasher leaking need a quick fix
    My old Maytag Dishwasher has been leaking intermittently. I noticed that the part that seals the machine door is where the leak is coming from versus below the machine. I also noticed that one of the bolts/screws is missing from the door that folds out, so more than likely the door is just not producing a nice seal for the cycle, thus water is dripping out. The bolt on the other side is fine, but it is not the kind of bolt that I could just purchase at Ace Hardware and looks specific to the appliance. What to do? The machine works fine, and I just need to get the seal secured with this missing bolt area and I'll be good to go. Any suggestions on how to fix this, wedge this, or otherwise? I really don't have the $$ to plop down on a new washer and just hoping to buy another 5-6 months of usage on this appliance before looking at a replacement. :)

    Go to wwwrepairclinic.com and put in model # to order the screw you need. Also if the seal is bad you may need to replace it as well.
