My Kenmore top-loading washing machine is leaking from somewhere underneath. It leaks when it's not in use, whether it has clothes in it or not. It is not leaking at the back, the floor is only wet under the front half of the washer. I propped it up yesterday morning and checked all the hoses, they are all tight, and in good condition. I can't feel any moisture anywhere on the hoses or anywhere! Last night my husband turned the water off,but it is still leaking. The washer is a Kenmore Model 110. Serial # CF0345081. I really appreciate any help you can give me with this! Thank you!

Got to:http://www.eserviceinfo.com/downloadsm/31479/Kenmore_110.92273100.html and you will be able to download a good diagram. It looks like you may have a leak on the very bottom of the tub or on the hose. That is where this model usually leaks. It is rather hard to get to. You have to unplug it and remove the back and use a water hose to fill the tub so you can find the leak. Once you put water in it the leak should be obvious. DrTom4444
