Additional Information
Door boot 4986ER0004F is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part that ensures a watertight seal by connecting the washer's tub to its door. This part is crucial in preventing water leaks during the wash cycle. Notably, this version includes a drain port; if your 27-inch LG front-load washer was produced before September 2007, use door boot 4986ER0004B instead, as these washers do not have a drain port. For installation guidance, please refer to the Installation Guide with Video provided by Sears PartsDirect. This door boot replaces original part numbers 4986ER0004J, 4986ER0004K, and 4986ER0004N, ensuring compatibility and ease of replacement for existing users.
