I started my washer this morning, stepped out to grab some cloths to put in it, came back and water was coming from the bottom of the washer. I turned it off, of course, then pulled it out to check the hoses. There was no moisture on any of the outer hoses. I check the tub, there was enough water in it to account for the time that it was running. I started it to see were the water was coming from, in the back, in the middle, there are two slits, the one on the left (when facing the back) was were the water was coming from. I have no idea what would be causing this since the tub is still filling and the hoses for the hot and cold are dry. The water inlet valve is to the left of it and it is dry also. Any ideas on what the problem could be would be appreciated. Thank you.

Here's your schematic to breakdown your unit you'll have to tear it apart and identify the part it's leaking from. Good luck

Here's the actual parts manual for your washer. It may be that the hose running from the inlet valve to the vacuum break is leaking. Number 22 on the diagram on page 5.

I wanted to thank everyone for their input. I was able to take it apart and it was the vacuum inlet hose, there was a huge hole in it. Thank you again.
