12676000002681 Dishwasher Genuine OEM Door Gasket
Description
Genuine OEM 12676000002681 Dishwasher Door Gasket
A dishwasher door gasket is a continuous rubber seal that runs around the inside perimeter of the door opening. When the door closes, the gasket compresses against the tub flange and forms a watertight barrier that keeps wash water inside the tub during every cycle. The 12676000002681 is a genuine OEM Midea door gasket, approximately 6 feet of flexible rubber designed to seat in the channel around the door frame on Midea-manufactured dishwashers sold under both the Midea and Insignia brand names.
Over time, the combination of hot water, steam, and alkaline detergent breaks down the rubber's plasticizers, causing the gasket to harden, crack, or pull away from the channel. Once the seal is compromised, water escapes during wash and rinse fills — typically showing up as a puddle under the front of the door. This replacement gasket restores the original factory seal with no adhesive or special tools required: it presses into the same channel the old gasket came out of.
Quick Answer
Will this fix my dishwasher leak? Yes — the Genuine OEM 12676000002681 Door Gasket replaces a worn, cracked, or detached door seal on Midea and Insignia 24-inch built-in dishwashers. If water pools on the floor at the front of the door during a wash cycle and the gasket looks hardened, torn, or no longer sits flush in its channel, this is the part. Classic symptom: water leaking from the bottom of the dishwasher door during the wash or rinse cycle.
Common Symptoms This Part Fixes
Water leaking from under or around the dishwasher door during a cycle
Visible cracks, tears, or hardened sections on the rubber door seal
Gasket has pulled out of the door frame channel or hangs loose
Puddle forming on the floor in front of the dishwasher
Musty or mildew smell from moisture trapped under a degraded seal

Turn off the circuit breaker or unplug the dishwasher and shut off the water supply valve before beginning any repair. Open the door fully and inspect the channel where the old gasket sits. Starting at one end, peel the old gasket out of the channel by hand or with a plastic trim tool — avoid metal tools that could scratch the tub flange. Clean any residue or buildup from the channel with a damp cloth. Beginning at the top center of the door opening, press the new gasket into the channel and work evenly around both sides toward the bottom. Make sure the gasket sits uniformly and the door closes flush with no gaps. Run a short rinse cycle and check for leaks before returning the unit to normal service.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know my door gasket needs replacing?
Look for water on the floor in front of the dishwasher after a cycle. Open the door and run your finger along the gasket — if you feel hard spots, cracks, gaps, or sections that have pulled away from the channel, the seal is no longer doing its job and the gasket should be replaced.
My dishwasher is branded Insignia. Is this still the right gasket?
Yes. Insignia dishwashers sold through Best Buy are manufactured by Midea and use the same OEM parts. If your Insignia model number appears in the compatibility list above, this is the correct gasket.
Does this gasket require adhesive to install?
No. It is designed to press-fit into the channel molded into the door frame. No glue, silicone, or adhesive is needed. If the gasket won't stay seated, the channel may have residue from the old gasket that needs to be cleaned out first.
Can a leaking door gasket damage my floor?
Yes. A slow leak from a degraded gasket can go unnoticed for weeks, and the water that collects under the dishwasher can warp hardwood, delaminate laminate flooring, or promote mold growth under the unit. Replacing the gasket at the first sign of a leak avoids more expensive floor or cabinet repairs.
What is the difference between a door gasket and a tub gasket?
A door gasket (this part) seals the gap between the door and the tub opening to prevent water from escaping during a cycle. A tub gasket typically seals the joint between the inner tub and the base or sump assembly inside the machine. They are different parts with different part numbers, so make sure you are ordering the correct one for the leak location you are seeing.
