Possible Causes

Cracked tub-to-pump hose, Loose hose clamp at pump or tub, Leaking drain pump housing, Split recirculation or vent hose

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the unit and shut off water supply. Water inside the cabinet can contact live parts; do not run the unit until the leak is fixed.

Step-by-step checks:

  • 1. Access the underside: Remove the lower front panel or rear panel to view the pump and hoses. Place towels or a tray to catch water.
  • 2. Run a brief fill/drain test: With panels removed and power restored, run a short cycle and watch for drips from hoses, pump, or tub connections. Immediately unplug if a major leak is seen.
  • 3. Inspect tub-to-pump hose: Check the large black hose from the tub to the drain pump for cracks, pinholes, or loose clamps. Replace the hose or tighten clamps as needed.
  • 4. Examine the pump housing: Look for leaks around the pump body or shaft. A cracked housing or leaking seal requires replacement of the OEM Monogram drain pump.
  • 5. Check auxiliary hoses: Inspect any recirculation, vent, or overflow hoses for splits or disconnections.
  • 6. Reassemble and test: After repairs, run a full cycle while monitoring for leaks before closing panels.

When to call a technician: If the outer tub itself is cracked or leaking, professional replacement is usually required.
