Admiral ATW4675YQ 4.5 cu ft Top Load Washer with Deep Water Wash and Fabric Softener Dispenser Leaking Error Fix: Water Leaking From Bottom of Washer

Error code Leaking on the Admiral ATW4675YQ 4.5 cu ft Top Load Washer with Deep Water Wash and Fabric Softener Dispenser means: Water Leaking From Bottom of Washer. Water is pooling under the washer during or after use. Common leak sources include: (1) Worn tub seal — the main seal where the transmission shaft passes through the outer tub is the most common source; water tracks down the shaft and drips from the bottom. (2) Drain pump gasket or cracked pump body. (3) Loose hose clamps on the tub-to-pump hose or the fill hose connections. (4) Cracked outer tub (rare but possible on older units). Place the washer on a dry surface and run a cycle, watching for the leak source with a flashlight. Tub seal replacement requires removing the agitator, inner basket, and transmission.
