The washer leaks a little when it spins out. The leak appears to be coming from between the inside liner and the outside shell, in the rear from under the hose connectors. Do I take the back off (how?) and inspect the above area? What should I expect to see if all is normal? Do I need special tools? (I have a few basic home tools.)
The washer leaks almost every load, but particularly if I miscalculate the load size...too much water for too little clothes.

Remove the front panel. Remove the screw on each top corner holding the top panel. Lift up the top panel and try to pinpoint the leak. Post the results.

Here are the break down diagrams for the Maytag washer Model LA482
