Whirlpool ADG550 leaking.

Tried to have a look on SIOS but the diagrams for this model are appalling.

Base was flooded, this machine appears to have large plastic chambers on both sides, fill on the left, not sure what the one on the right does.

I found the grey plastic, bayonet securing ring for the right hand chamber in the bottom of the dishwasher so thought I had cracked the leak.
Refitted the securing ring , dried out base and set it to wash only to find water dripping from the bottom of the right hand plastic chamber.

There appears to be something missing from the bottom of this chamber but as the aforementioned diagrams are so bad its impossible for me to know.

Should it be connected to a hose, should it have a blank or grommet in it.

There is no sign of anything lying in the base.

Does anyone know just what should be on the bottom of this doofer?

Hi Jim,

The one on the right is a condenser chamber. I have sent you a parts manual and if you look at position 7431 you will see that there is a gasket between the condenser and the nut that you put back on. If the gasket was off that would cause your leak.

So there shouldn’t be any water dripping out of the hole at the bottom then, or anything attached to it?

The gasket you mention appeared to be in place but as I will have to remove the washing machine installed at the side of it to get the dishwasher out I cannot be certain until I take the side panel off.

Jim.
