Leak under the washer
After noticing the leak, I moved the washer out to try to find the source. In the process, the Drain Hose Extension broke in two. As an emergency repair, I put the two halves together with duct tape. After running the washer again to try and find the leak, I discovered that it must have been the Drain Hose because now there was no leak. I then ordered a new one from PartSelect and replaced it with the repaired item.

Water wouldn't drain
Washing machine stopped draining, was looking into buying a new one. Thought maybe it was the pump, looked on-line and found one for around $50.00. Recieved the pump in pretty good time (3 days) The repair was not too bad, although the "ring clamp" was not very easy to work with. Hard to work it around the hoses in such a tight spot.

A lot of water was coming out underneath the equipment.
Steps:
1.- Open the front panel by pressing down (with a spatula) the 2 metal locks located between the front and top panels.
2.- Remove the drain hose located int the lower right and at the bottom using a set of pliers and a nutdriver.
3.-Install the new drain hose.
4.-Reinstall the front panel
The installation itself took me less tha 15 minutes.
Since I had opened the the front panel, I took rthe oportunity to air clean and dust off the equipment.

water level would'nt empty to allow spin cycle
with a blade screw driver, I released the clips holding the front cover (from the top cover) tip the panel foward and lift off of pins on bottom. I put some towels in the bottom to absorb any water left after removing all I could with a cup. Then I released both clamps with pliers, pushing them back on hoses. Using a 10 mm nut driver, I removed the pump. I then mounted the new pump, pushed hoses on and slid clamps in position with pliers(while squeezing pliers) Voila, it works like it's new. Thank you Parts Select

Machine wouldn't fill, losing water out back
Determined the drain hose on the back of the machine was leaking, due to my dog chewing on the hose. Replaced the hose with the new one, locked the dog out of the garage where the machine is located, problem solved.

Washer was leaking water underneath.
I pulled the front off of the washing machine using a table knife to pop the clips. The drain hose had a hole big enough to put your finger in so we knew that was the problem. One of the clamps holding it on took a screwdriver to loosen the clamp, the other I used a pair of adjustable pliers to squeeze the ends together to loosen it. I pulled off the old part, ordered it, got it the next day and replaced it the same way I took it off. It was simple and the part was less than $10.

washer was leaking out the bottom
first I filled the washer max load to determine the problem, once I saw where the water was dripping I decided to remove the hose. I removed bottom of the hose, and the water from the tank started pouring out, I tryed to put the hose back on but started to get a pretty good electric shock, I then unpluged the washer and ran to garage for the floor squeegy. I then pushed the water out the side door. After cleaning and drying all rooms I sat down at the computer and ordered part. When the part arrived I removed clamp with pliers put both clamps on the new hose and installed. A very simple project and I ended up with a clean laundry room. Thanks "Brainy"

Pump leaking
First I uplugged the machine and removed the front cover of the machine by prying outward at the top corners with a screwdriver. Then I removed the two bolts from the mounting bracket and unplugged the electrical wires. Then using a pliers I squeazed the hosed clamps and slid them back on the hoses and pulled the hoses off the pump.
To install the new pump, simply reverse the order and check for leaks. The whole process took about 20 minutes.
