How can I fix my Fisher and Paykel Smartdrive Excellence 5.5 Wash Machine?

How can I fix a slow water leaking from my washing machine. I have noticed it over the last 4-5 days and I don't know where it is leaking from. The water comes out slowly from the front underneath and I tilted it so I could feel and see underneath where it is coming from, but I can't find it. Help, Thankyou.

It could also be the flexible hose from the bowl to the drain pump. They do perish over time. They are about $20- $30. Make sure the clips that secure it are tight.

If you lean the machine up against the wall, from underneath,
can you see if the water is leaking from the PUMP ???
Maybe the pump seal is damaged, they are easy to remove,
they screw off like a Lid from a Jar....of course POWER sh/be disconnected and disconnect wires as well......the only other seal, is a SHAFT seal, if thats
blown, then it will destroy the electronics below, namely the
stator and rotor...
