Had a big puddle of water under the washing machine the other day. Frigidaire laundry center. Anyway, I pulled the front cover off. Water in the bottom of the machine, and a little on the drain hose. No evidence of leakage from the drain hose where it goes into the drain in the wall box.
No obvious problems. Dried everything off and ran a couple of tubs. No leaks. Have kept an eye on it the last couple days. No problems.
Two things come to mind.
1. Sticky water level sensor. May have overfilled the tub.
2. Wife said she just rinsed some stuff that had be washed previously and sat for a while. I wonder if she filled the tub and then advanced the timer to a point where spin cycle started and spun water from a too full tub for that operation. Is that possible, or is there some sort of lock out/safeguard to preclude that happening?
If it's the latter, then all I need do is tell wife to let cycle run from beginning without advancing. Then tell her "I told you so" when she does it again.
