Dishwasher Door

Easy DIY Part: $20–$50
Float Assembly

Easy DIY Part: $15–$40

The float controls the water level — if stuck, the tub overfills and leaks.

A faulty inlet valve can drip water even when the dishwasher is off.
Base Plate / Flood Protection Tray

Hard DIY Part: $20–$50

The base tray catches overflow — water here indicates an internal leak.
