Please help, today I replaced the flood hose (AP2046588), and flood gasket (AP2044901) to my GE washer, during agitating, water still come out and flooded my floor, I don't know what else I need to replace to avoid anymore spilling out of the hose, any suggestion or ideas will be greatly appreciated.:confused:

Make sure the tub cover gasket and cover are seated properly and clipped doen tightly and check to insure the washer is not overfilling, disconnect the air dome hose from the water level switch and blow into it to clear any possible debris. You're sure the leak is from the left rear corner of the tub assembly, and not from the fill valve or a damaged tub seal ? Good Luck and Thanks,

I would first check the water valve, here is how, turn the unit on like you are going to do a load , when the water begins to come in , just unplug the unit, does water continue to come in ? if so you will need to replace the water valve. the next thing that comes to mind is the pressure switch, and the hose that goes to it, if that hose has a hole in it ? this will cause the unit to overflow as well, I would need a model # to give you the exact part numbers for this , If you would like to check that and get back to us we will gladly help you with those numbers , thank you and good luck !

Check for a pin hole or a very small crack , sometimes mice will nibble on the hoses looking for water or something soft to chew on
