A:Answer Geek Squad Advised me to wipe the gasket and door at the end of each final load for the week, special attention to the three little holes at the very bottom, this is what drains back into pump. And always leave the door cracked open to air out. Should take care of that for years to come. He said he keeps a small towel on the door or top, for that, and then washes it in the next towel load, keeps a cycle of the routine going.
some great suggestions from Dave in Fairlawn Ohio....
