Tricity Bendix AW1400W front load. Water leaks onto floor (a lot). Hoses dry. Pump and drain hose OK. Running the program causes leak. Pouring water into soap dispenser drawer causes leak. Just pouring water into the drum causes water to pour onto the floor
Washing Machines - Tricity Bendix - AW1400W Front Load Washer
I have this model and mine leaked too. I opened it up to find the leak and found the drum was cracked and there was a big piece of plastic missing from it. It had been repaired with clear silicon sealant! But....this washer was bough BRAND NEW and was collected from the warehouse all packaged up. This means the repair could have ONLY been carried out by the manufacturers as it had never even seen a show room. I was very disappointed in tricity!
Ether the washer is over filling or has warn out the seals. If it has been abused (overloaded) it needs serious work. other wise the sensor may be stuck. Try 1/2 cup of vinegar with a load and see if that cleans the sensor travel area past the drum but inside the tub. This is a common problem for an old machine. Best leak is on the door and you may be able to tighten the screws but be careful it could mis aligne it so tighten a small amount and test by closeing the door. Do this at least twice before turning the screws hard.
