If the water is near the front center of the washer the pump may be leaking. Remove two screws at the front bottom of the control panel and tilt it back to expose two large brass color clips that hold the cabinet in place. Disconnect the lid switch wiring at the plug. Remove the clips and lift/slide the cabinet forward to remove it. The water pump is at the bottom of the "motor stack" and slips onto the motor shaft. You should be able to see water drip marks from the shaft bearing if the pump is leaking. Remove the inlet and outlet hoses before trying to remove the pump. The pump is held in place by two spring clips.

My washer comes on and fills with water and i can pump out water but its not spinning or doing any tub movement at all, i have the whrilpool calyspo top load

If the lid switch is defective, your washer can't spin and may not function at all. The switch is inside the washing machine main housing near the door frame. Often you have to raise or open the top or front of the washer to get to the switch. If it's defective, you need to replace it. Replace the lid switch with this part.

Water leaking from bottom ofoasis top loading machine

you may not be leaking out the bottom. Your stand pipe may be clogged. If the stand pipe has a slight clog in it, the stand pipe will over flow, and the water "looks" as if its leaking from the bottom... These pump faster than your old machine, so the pipe will back up faster... hope that helps

Maytag top load washing machine leaking water from bottom

The machine is leaking water from the bottom, I think the leak is in the area near where the motor is mounted. Before we noticed the water comes from underneath the washer, we smelled like burning rubber.

My daughters maytag has water leaking from the bottom.

Check the easy stuff first, fill hoses tight?- drain hose cracked?
Failing those checks, cut a piece of cardboard slightly smaller than the size of your washer. Slip the cardboard under the washer and run a short load. Look carefully at the water mark on the cardboard. The mark on the cardboard the water leak will leave, will help you tell from which side or front to back the leak is common from. This will help point you in the correct direction to look for the trouble maker.

Washer leaking water on floor

Need to check drain pump and its hose connections. If its not from the drum seal then that's usually where the leaks occur.
