Any info will be apreciated, thank you.

You have created a siphon, probably by placing the drain hose into the drain lower than than the tub of the washer, or by creating an airtight connection there.

Raising the hose and/or breaking the air tight siphon should solve this.

Good luck, let us know if that works.

Thank you for all your help.

I had the hose gooing into a low drain, when I elevated it everything was fine.

Never had this happen before and it just freaked me out, I'm just really glad it was something dumb and simple to remedy.

Again, Thank you very much for your help.
