This is most likely either due to a clog in the drain line or the seal around the sump being at fault. It depends where your unit is leaking from. If you remove the bottom kick plate from the unit you should be able to see where the water is leaking from if it is in the middle of the unit most likely you would have to replace the sump and sump gasket if it is off to the side of the sump then it might be the drain pump being clogged or blocked with something that is makeing it leak. If you have any further questions message me back and Thanks again for using Fixya

When running my dishwasher it overflows and leaks out onto my kitchen floor. Had a plumber in and identified that this issue is not with the plumbing as there are no other issues to the sink.

sounds like you should check the rubber gasket around the door. if it is torn or ripped it will leak. hope this helps.also make sure where the rubber meets when you close the door that it is al clean from dirt and grim. have a nice day

The 2 metal "clips" that secure the dishwasher to

door gasket possibly bad or another leak. Stop using dishwasher until repaired or you're likely to ruin your floor. I just had this problem before we found a leak and now we may have to replace the kitchen flooring.

Order new clips or the dishwasher could fall out onto the floor or even onto your foot.

Too much sink water causes flooding from dishwasher.

If you let it sit with vinegar and it worked after for a while that tells me it may be plugged up with grease. Might be worth while trying to clean it out with Drain O a drain cleaner. Make sure its washed clean after. Grease and dirt builds up after a while in all machines. If vinegar works might be worth cleaning more often.

I have a Frigidaire dishwasher that I have had for a year and a half - 8 months ago it broke and leaked into my kitchen ruining my wood floor which had to be replaced. Shortly after that the top sprayer...

I would check to make sure that the top spray arm wasn't over tightened when it was installed. That spray arm threads onto a plastic supply tube which is easy to strip, which will cause it not to tighten properly and leak down the side of the dishwasher and acros the floor.
