The drain hole may be clogged and not allowing the unit to drain as it should. Check the drain hole for clogs and if necessary, run an 18" long plastic ZIP Tie (or something similar. No wire coat hangers, though), that will fit inside the drain hole, as far as you carefully can. Slowly remove it and be prepared for water to follow,
Hope this helps you solve the problem.
It is so common that the drain leaks in many ways and
is the most problematic fault in a washing machine. In all occasions it is
important that your observation is most important and so is vital to the
identification /rectification and solution. If you have noticed that water has
leaked then as the drain hose pump/valve and fittings are located on the
underside 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 the
house 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 loose
on the grip which can all cause the leak to occur. Removing and cleaning the
drain pump/valve, tightening of the hose is also very important. Also water can
leak if there are gaps on the front door gaskets and must be checked but this
will happen only during the cycle and not on the drain cycle end.
