Put the front panel aside and install the door back. Run the washer and watch where it's leaking from. Post the results.

I did find the air hose to the pressure switch had a small hole rubbed into it where it had lain against the concrete counter balance. I patched the hole and the machine now works fine again. Thanks for you help!
