Possible Causes

Cracked sump hose between tub and pump, Loose hose clamp, Leaking drain pump housing, Damaged tub-to-pump rubber boot

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer and shut off water. Tilt the machine only with assistance to avoid injury.

  • Access underside: Remove the rear or bottom panel. Use a torch to inspect the large black sump hose from the tub to the pump and the pump body itself.
  • Check clamps: Tighten any loose screw or spring clamps on the sump and drain hoses.
  • Look for cracks: Flex the sump hose and look for splits or pinholes. Replace the hose if any damage is found.
  • Inspect pump: If water is seeping from the pump body or around the shaft, replace the AEG drain pump assembly.

After repairs, run a short cycle while observing the underside for leaks before refitting panels.
