I fixed mine for zero cost. 1) I determined which solenoid valve was leaking. - 2) I removed the valve assembly. - 2) I removed the plastic debris filter from the inlet. I rotated the rubber solenoid washer with a pick tool. - 3) I hooked up hot water to the offending to the leaking valve. - 4) I hit it with pulses of hot water from the supply hose while... (4. - activating the solenoid switch (120V). 6) After 5 pulses the offending valve quit leaking. Summary... The little rubber washer (spring activated), gets clogged with a bit of debris.

Thank you for the video! I just got this machine and after a few washes, I noticed leaking onto floor. Then, I checked tub and it was filling with water, pretty slowly. I shut off water and ran the spin and drain cycle to get rid of the water. Then, I looked and found your video. I'm hoping this is the problem. Thank you for the help!!!

How crucial is it to also take a wide stance before performing replacement replacement?

THIS VIDEO IS TERRIFIC!!! Thank you!! I did it in about an hour! One funny thing: make sure to shut the main water off before you remove the water hoses. I didn’t and got soaked 🤣
