LG Internal Hose or Pump Leak

Washer leaks water from underneath the machine.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Cracked drain hose, Loose tub-to-pump hose clamp, Leaking drain pump housing, Tub seal failure

Safety first: Unplug the washer and shut off water. Tilt carefully; have towels ready.

Inspect hoses: Remove lower front or rear panel and check all hoses for cracks or loose clamps.
Check pump: Look for water around the drain pump body and shaft. Replace pump if leaking.
Run test: Run a short fill and drain while observing for drips.
Seal issues: If water appears from the center of the tub, the main tub seal may be leaking, requiring tub/bearing service.
