LG WM3400CW Washing machine leaking out of detergent drawer

[wdchopper]

My LG Washer leaks out of the detergent drawer and runs down the front of the machine during the cycle when water is sprayed into the drawer.  I have pulled the drawer out and made sure that all the holes are unplugged and draining properly.  There does not appear to be any type of seal on the drawer.  The water does spray from the machine above the drawer and into the drawer at the appropriate times. Can it be” overspray” that hits the front of the drawer and runs out?  Why would it be doing that?  Ideas?

Usually for it to be overspray the nozzles or hole will have mineral build up.  The most likely cause is the drawer is not draining fast enough. Need to check the hose between the dispenser drawer and tub for blockage causing a restriction. Occasionally the port on the tub will be block by a small clothing item.

Finally figured it out.  The front piece that holds the entire control panel has a bit of a seal the goes around the bottom of the detergent drawer.  It cannot be seen unless you take the whole front piece off.  The seal is not replaceable as it it integrated into the control panel piece.  A little bit of caulking, a little bit of fudging and I put the panel back on.  It appears to be doing the trick as there has been no leakage after several cycles.
