Tipped the washer over to find where the leak was coming from. After finding it was the hose between the tub and drain fitting on the back of the machine I stood the washer back up and removed the access hatch cover on the back of the machine. Two spring clamps held the hose on which I removed with channel lock pliers. Installation was a bit more difficult because the clamps like to slip off the pliers. They make special pliers for these type of clamps but I don't have a pair. I was able to easily get one clamp on but after wasting a few minutes with the other one I decided to just use an automotive type worm drive hose clamp for the upper clamp, rather than struggle with the original wire style clamp.
