Electrolux 43010 leaking from door/possible overfill

[Simon Griffiths]

Electrolux ESL43010 dishwasher leaking from door.
Seals in good condition, but bottom seal has two cutouts along its length which allow water movement.
With outer door skin removed, it exposes how the bottom seal works and shows how water splashes against the tub’s bottom lip.
I’ve adjusted the existing pressure level switch, which resolved the problem. Now having replaced said switch as a precaution, the problem has returned.
Have I miss diagnosed the cause, or do pressure switches need adjustment on fitting?
Thanks in advance.

1. is it overfilling above the lip of front seal ? check for blockage in hose to sump especial in hard water area.
2. check your spray arm is not split or its not stuck holes spraying constantly pointing towards door. replace spray are,
ps only every adjusted indesit/hotpoint dw for said problem but extremely rare and i repair all brands daily

Thanks WVM – Found split in bottom arm as suggested – Drilled and bolted two halves at split as temp fix -All OK.
Many thanks.
