How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the appliance and shut off water supply. Mop up any standing water before working.
- Remove panels: Take off the lower front or rear panel to inspect the internal components while running a short fill/drain test (use caution around live parts if testing with power).
- Identify leak source: Look for active drips or water trails on hoses, pump body, and tub connections. A flashlight helps trace the path.
- Tighten or replace clamps: If a hose is seeping at a clamp, reposition and tighten the clamp. Replace rusted or weak clamps.
- Replace damaged hoses: Any hose with visible cracks, bulges, or soft spots should be replaced with the correct Insignia hose.
- Drain pump housing: If water leaks from the pump body or seam, replace the drain pump assembly.
