Leaking, not found in owners manual

I was hoping I would be able to get some information regasrding the leaking of my 4 yr old Maytag washer. The owners manual does not apply to my current situation. It seems to be coming from underneath the motor, I am not sure that it is called. I have not been able to find a breakdown of the appliance. I seen that there are 2 hoses attached and it is a rounded part. It only leaks in the Drain / Spin Cyle regardless of size of load (including MINI) with clothes or no clothes. Help?

I just had someone come look at mine for leaking. He said a needed a new seal as well as that the bearings were shot (it makes a ton of noise when it spins). He said it would cost over $200 to fix and I was better off buying a new one.

What you are describing sounds like the pump.
You can see a parts breakdown by going to sears.com, click on parts, and enter your model number. You can view parts diagram and parts list there.
Post back if you need help.

My 13 year-old Frigidaire front-load washer has been leaking. Under the detergent tray, I found a quarter-sized hole in the bottom of the area that separates the tray area from the rest of the washer.

Read your owner's manual under detergent trays and see if it says anything about holes under trays.

I am considering buying a 4 yr old Kitchenaid Refridgerator. The owners say ''all it needs'' is a new water filter and freon for the cooling system. What am I getting myself into with the freon? Why...

You are buying a lemon, you've to have the leak repair and it depends where the leak located. No it is not easily fixed. Only to the one who is in the refrigeration trade because he have all the time in the world to locate the leak, vaccumn the unit and check anymore leaking . That take times and time is what you have to pay for.
To me I'll leave it alone.

Fisher and Paykel Washer leaking water

hi there,

the leak underneath could be from the pump or the drain hose. some washers have a tub to pump boot that sometimes springs a leak.

for a 4-month-old washer, i would certainly hope you pay nothing. F&P appliances come with at least a 2 year warranty. check your user & care guide for warranty information.

Maytag legacy series washer leaking

Price is right. Repair time is right for an inexperienced repairman. Worth it ? If you watch what you are doing and not rush then, yes, it's worth it.
