How do I take off the front panel

My washer (lg wm2277hw) quit working in the middle of a wash cycle and when I checked on it, it smelled like an electrical short very strong smell when I pulled out the soap dispenser and by the electrical panel. Couldn't smell any burning smell at the back of the machine. How do I take off the front panel to check?

At the very bad of the machine take out the phillips head screws which pass through an L shaped part (which is attached to the top) into the back of the washer. (the L part should stay with the top) Slide the top back about two inches and lift off. Remove dispenser drawer by pushing down on the center tab at the back of the dispenser drawer, then remove one screw behind dispenser drawer front and one screw at each upper corner of control from back side of control. Panel is still held by tabs across top. Be careful, as there are sharp areas here. Detach all electrical plugs from control, and it should be loose in your hands now.

During the wash and rinse cycle I have water seeping out of the bottom of the door on my LG washer. WM2277HW.

Give a good clean around the door seal and make sure you close it firmly.This does usually fix it but you can also twist the door manually to help the seal.

Bleach remains in bleach dispenser after washing and even after extra rinse cycle

I put the bleach in with the load right on top of the whites, so I dont have bleach left in the dispenser for the next load. Seems to work okay.

LG Front-Load Washer WM2277HW ce sign

CE is an error stating that you have a problem with you board or possibly the stator on your unit. Either way your going to need service. You can ohm out your stator to see if it is the problem.
Check the back harness, maybe it has come loose, remove the back panel and it is the blue connector.
