I have a 1 year old Kenmore 70 Series washer and can not figure out how to remove the top or back so I can replace the part the water hoses are connected to.

My washer has a hidden latch that you have to push on with a flat screwdriver to release it. It is located betwen the top and the side panels, there are two on the front, then it tilts back. As far as exactly where.... well.. you will just have to kind of pry on it see where the metal is starting to bind (not enough to bend it, but just enough to let you know where the latches are). See image below.
