How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the washer and close water supply valves. Be prepared for water spillage when opening panels.
- 1. Identify leak location: Run a short cycle while observing the back and underside of the washer (use a flashlight). Stop and unplug as soon as you see water.
- 2. Inspect hoses: Remove the rear or lower front panel. Check the tub-to-pump hose, drain pump outlet hose, and inlet hoses for cracks or loose clamps. Tighten clamps and replace damaged hoses.
- 3. Check pump body: Examine the drain pump housing for hairline cracks or leaks at the seam. Replace the pump assembly if leaking.
- 4. Verify inlet connections: Ensure the external water hoses are tight at both the faucet and the washer's inlet valve.
