How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the appliance and turn off water supply. Tilt the machine only when the drum is mostly empty to avoid spills.
Step-by-step checks:
- Inspect external drain hose: Check the hose from the rear of the machine to the standpipe or sink. Look for cracks, splits, or loose connections. Replace if damaged.
- Check internal hoses: Remove the rear or bottom panel to access the pump and hoses. Look for water trails or mineral deposits indicating leaks.
- Tighten clamps: Ensure all hose clamps on the pump and tub connections are tight. Replace any corroded clamps.
- Inspect pump body: Check the pump housing for hairline cracks or leaks around the seal. Replace the pump if leaking.
