Washing machine leaking at the back

I would start by checking your hose connections for the water lines, they look like a garden hose connection, and you can replace the rubber washers in the ends of the hoses. Make sure they are tight and look for where the water is coming from, sometimes you get lucky and its a water hose that loosened up from vibration over time. If its not coming from the water lines its most likely an internal seal on the drum, or a leaking connection at the water pump. I would try and track down exactly where its leaking from first and if its an easy fix like the water lines try that before calling for a service/repair service to come look at it, could save a lot of money!

Washer leaks when close to the end of the cycle

if water is running out from under machine, could be several things 1. water pump seal worn out
2. loose hose connection. or hole in one of the rubber hoses.
end of cycle is normally spin and pump so problem as suggested above could be pump shaft seal worn out, normally you would get dripping water from pump ,if it is pump leaking, then you need a new pump, good luck

Water not filling very quick

Hi Jeanine,

Lets do the easy - inexpensive check / repair first:

Shut off the water
supply at the input to the hose. Turn the washer on to warm to allow water pressure in the hose to be relieved. It should take only a second or two to do this.

Shut the machine OFF.

Mark the hoses H and C (or other marking you choose) on both ends to match Hot and Cold water.

Disconnect the hoses completely.

Check for and remove any sediment (and other debris) caught in the screen mesh-type filter in the end of the hose and at the hot and cold water input connections on the washer.

Check condition of the rubber washers in the hose ends and replace as needed.

Connect the hose to the supply side and hold the other ends into the washer tub or other wide mouth container or bucket.

Turn the water ON and then OFF momentarily to flush the hoses while holding the hose ends. You should see a high volume stream from both hoses.

Reconnect to the washer side connection (after making sure the washers are still in place).

Tighten hoses to hand tight - plus an additional 1/4 turn.

Turn on the water supply

Make an initial check for leaks and drips at both ends of the hose. Correct as needed. Check again after 5 minutes. Correct as needed and repeat this step.

At this point, the flow of water to the washer has either been verified or corrected. If there is still an issue with water flow it is likely a problem with the valve inside the washer (has the hose connections sticking out the back of the machine. You can attempt to replace it yourself or turn the problem over to an appliance repairer.

Good luck!

Washing machine leaking from the bottom. I called a technician he told me it was the pump. I checked and i notice that the leaking comes from a black hose.

See if you can adjust the clamps
Get yourself a light and clean everything around hose so you can see where the leak is coming from. Sometimes the pump will spray the water and looks as the hose.

Why when washing machine ends cycle it keeps leaking water

If water is leaking only during the times when it is supposed to be coming in , then the first places to check are at the hose connections and the hoses themselves. If it continues to leak after the water stops coming in , then you have to look at the drain connection and finally at the drum seal.

Washer leaking water. Have checked all hoses and connections.

It is so common that the drain leaks in many ways andis the most problematic fault in a washing machine. In all occasions it isimportant that your observation is most important and so is vital to theidentification /rectification and solution. If you have noticed that water hasleaked then as the drain hose pump/valve and fittings are located on theunderside of the machine it is important that you look for possible leaks here.In some cases the drain hose would be clogged at the drain end to outlet of thehouse and so there will be back flushing resulting in overflow to the outside.Also the drain pump/valve can be clogged or the drain hose clamps can be looseon the grip which can all cause the leak to occur. Removing and cleaning thedrain pump/valve, tightening of the hose is also very important. Also water canleak if there are gaps on the front door gaskets and must be checked but thiswill happen only during the cycle and not on the drain cycle end.Tips for leak: http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/washing-machines/a/7/1461/do-you-have-a-leaky-washing-machine.html Check for tips on the link below to identify parts andremoval:http://www.espares.co.uk/advice/washing-machines/a/7

Water leaking from underneath machine

Open the top table. Check water inlet hose for damage or tear at the connecting places.

Pour water in the wash drum externally from from front side and see whether leak is present. If leaks, drum is having problem or the drain hose damaged before the drain valve end.

Water leaking

Check the fill hoses to check for tightnes, also check the other: Washer in the fill hose end, facult connection, drain hose in drain, drain pluged. If none of these, call a appliance repairman for help if cannot solve the other yourself. Hope this might help.

Cav4000aww magic chief washer

water is bypassing through the water inlet valve
easy fix go to lowes ect and get a cap plug for a water hose male end and screw it onto the water valve that has no hose connected to it

you could also screw on a water hose sprayer onto the valve if you have one on the end of the garden hose just make sure that it is turmed off

Water leaks and spin cycle not working properly

Water leaking from the bottom usually indicates either a bad hose , bad hose connection to the pump or a leaking pump. Also sounds like the machine is not spinning out. Is there water left in the tub at the end of the cycle?
