Water leaks under washing machine

I own a Kenmore Oasis top load washer model # 110.27072600, serial # CT 1671357.
My problem is water leakage. When the washer fills there are no leaks. When it goes into wash cycle there does not seem to be any leaks. While laying on the floor with a flashlight I can see water dripping when the washer goes into rinse cycle and the spin cycle. I think the little bit of water from the spin cycle is just cast off from the major leak. The water seems to come down in a circular pattern in the middle of the machine. It is not a great deal of water, but it varies with the load size. Is there any sort of gasket around the agitator , or maybe a seal around the tub, or the motor housing ? Any suggestions would be helpful .

I have a Kenmore Elite Oasis HE top load. The machine sounds like a thunder when it spins, and also a pond of water leaks on the floor.

Check your hoses for leaks or possibly the drain it's draining in is clogged or half clogged or too clogged to accept large amounts of water all at the same time. Not to sure bout the thunder part. Lol

My kenmore oasis washer has started leaking out water and flooding my floor. have you had any other complaints about this problem and how to fix it.

first of, you need to find out where the water is originating from, pull washer away from wall and look for water dripping. usually water leakage starts from pump. on this washer there is a circulation pump and a drain pump on bottom left and right side. check all hoses and enure that there is no pin holes started

It leaks a bit of water every wash

Check all of your hoses and see if it is wet. Don't neglect to check the water supply hoses for your hot and cold water. 9 out of 10 the leak is directly under the washer so if you can tip it on it's side you will a good view of the underneath carriage. Good Luck

How do i get the top off of a top load kenmore oasis washer to look at the water pump

#
1

Disconnect your Kenmore Oasis washing machine from its power source. Make sure that your washer is unplugged before beginning to disassemble it.
#
2

Remove the screws that hold the control console to the top of your Oasis washer. In some Kenmore Oasis models, the two screws may be covered by plastic end caps. After removing the screws, set them aside until you are ready to replace them.
#
3

Flip the console up, back and out of the way.
4

Locate the cabinet clips on the top of your Kenmore Oasis washer. These clips are located toward the back of the washer top and would be hidden by the console if it were not currently flipped up.
#
5

Slide your screwdriver underneath the metal cabinet clips. Wiggle the screwdriver back and forth to gently pry the cabinet clips free.
#
6

Disconnect the group of colored wires that plug into the top of the washer from the control console. These wires control the lid switch on your Kenmore washing machine. To disconnect, grasp the white plastic clip and pull gently.
#
7

Remove the washing machine cabinet. Tilt the cabinet towards you, and then lift the entire cabinet up and off of its platform.

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
