There are two, I assume, anti overfill components in the front of the tub. They are both leaking (Dripping) although to washer does not appear to be overfilling. Can an over load of detergent cause this? Any other things I should look for?
Too much soap can definitely cause leaking out both of those areas.
The one on the left is the float, which regulates the water level. The one on the right is a vent.
