LG WT4870CW Spraying Water out Vents Next to Water Hose Inputs


Recommended Posts

During any cycle that uses water, the machine is leaking water out the rear plastic cover that covers the electrical gear and valves. I removed the cover and the entire inside (valves, etc) are soaked. Floor has a large puddle.

Google found me nothing - can't find any indication of where the water is coming from, other than the valves or perhaps the cups that store the detergent/softener.

Any ideas?

Found it when running with the cover off. When facing the machine, the valve to the far right and the plastic hose connected to it have come disconnected, and its just spraying water all over the place.

Need to figure out how to get the valves off to reconnect this "hose".

The valve assembly is just held in place by three screws.
