Inspect the lid seal of the washing machine. If it is faulty, replace it with a new gasket.
- Inspect the hoses located at the faucet connections and the water valve connections. If they are loose, tighten them. If they are damaged, replace them.
- Inspect the inlet nozzles and either tighten the connections or have the nozzles replaced.
- Inspect the splash guard and either tighten the connections or have it replaced.
- Inspect all plastic valves on the washing machine. Tighten the connections or replace the valves if needed.
- Inspect the outlet hose to drain and tighten its connections or have it replaced.
- Have the washing machine’s water pump carefully inspected by a professional.
