leaking, you will need to check the following parts until you find
where the washer is leaking from.

pinholes or cracks in the fill hoses or missing rubber washers in
the hoses.

mixing valve can cause the washer to overflow and leak all over the
place.

dry out and cause the washer to leak water too.
Finally you will need to check each
one of the hoses in your washing machine.

places that your Whirlpool direct drive washer could be leaking
water from.
