Default Leaking Dishwasher
Brand: Kenmore   Age: 1 - 5 years   

I don't have the model number handy, but can look it up if necessary. This unit is the smaller 18" W size. It leaks at each bottom corner of the door and I believe it began when the wife used the wrong soap by mistake and created mounds of monster suds. It really leaked at first, but has subsided considerably since then, as the suds have finally went away with repeated washings and rinsing. We had this problem when it was still new and under warranty, which turned out to be the spray arm that spins around at the bottom. It had opened up a little, creating a sideway spray. The replacement part seems to be OK, as does the gasket, so now I'm wondering if the water level might be too high and how to adjust that. There is a clue, in that, I don't think it leaks until it starts the wash and rinse cycle, pointing back to that spray arm again, but as I said, it looks OK.
Any help and input on this will be appreciated.
