Moving into my parents house. They have the original dishwasher that was installed after they had house built. It is a Maytag WU600. I don't think it was ever used. If so, not much at all! Tried running it the other day, ran fine, except wouldn't drain. We think there is a clog somewhere as we were getting backup in sink when running washing machine. (Does not empty into septic). The gasket around the door is cracked. Where can I buy this?

Early Maytag dishwasher door gasket

Hi Lauri:

 

Your best bet locally would be to find an appliance dealer who handles Maytags that has been in business for a long time.  They might have the gasket as a "New Old Stock" item on the shelf as it is likely discontinued at this point.  If you can locate a part number that would be helpful as you can search online for the number directly and also call around to other appliance dealers/parts houses to see if they have one.  Someone in this forum may know the part number.

 

Good luck with your search - I think you should be able to track down that gasket.

Early Maytag DW door gasket on Ebay

Quick follow-up:

 

The link below is to what I think is your door gasket on Ebay.  It is Maytag part# 900311.  Since these are no longer made, I would jump on this if you are serious about keeping the machine.

Cracked Door Gasket On a MT WU600 DW

Is is cracked in many places or just one gap along the bottom edge?, this door gasket had a rather crude gap along the bottom edge which is normal for this DWs gasket.

Thank u all for your replies. I will ck that out on eBay tomorrow. I'm not exactly sure if it is cracked everywhere, but I think it was around the upper left side that I saw it. I need to look at it better tomorrow.
