Inspection and access
I opened the Samsung WF45K6500AW/A2-00 to reach the door boot. The request was limited to replacing the mold-affected gasket, rather than investigating a separate wash-cycle fault.
Repair and reassembly
I removed the front assembly and the retaining hardware around the boot, then removed the old gasket. The photographs show the washer opened and the removed boot on the floor beside it.
I fitted the OEM replacement boot listed on the invoice and reassembled the front of the washer. The final invoice total was $325.
