There is water coming from underneath the washer. How do I remove the back panel? Any suggestions on what and where to look for the leak?

Thanks!

Hi CBS

The back panel does not come off. Instead the cabinet comes off of the back panel. Look at the first three pictures on this site to see how to do it. Note: You console may have the screws in front, in back or under trim pieces, but they will be there.

You should see where the leak is coming from, most likely the pump which is center front. If so, take off the pump by removing the two clips and replace it. If it is from the center of the tub you will need to replace the tub seal.

Good luck, let us know what you find
