    You must have dislodged the rubber ring and the metal support ring on the filter.
    You are better off at this time to just replace the filter with a new one being careful upon reinstalling it. The old filter can seal can be reinstalled but it takes a little patience.

    Also, the filter will only go in one way. One tab is wider than the rest.
