Could the water have gotten into your underbelly from travelling in a heavy rain/wet roads? Happened to me.
Yes, I'm pretty sure that's also happened. But after sitting for 3 days, if I run the washer, water leaks from the underbelly.
Went back this morning to look for leaks.
- The drain hose is in the drain pipe.
- There is no water leaking from hoses or fittings behind the washer.
- Checked the drain trap and pipes behind the access panel that's behind the washer. All is dry.
- No water in the drain pan or the carpet around the washer.
- Removed the faux steps between washer and dresser. All dry.
- Looked under the dresser. Pipes and everything are dry.
- Opened the raceway that the leveling control panel is mounted on in the basement. Also dry.
- Basement floor is dry.
- Drain pipe going into the gray #1 tank looks good and is dry.
- Can't find any leaks in the gray #1 tank.
I think I'm going to stop looking. For the moment, my working theory is that a bunch of water got into the front underbelly last December while driving through a very heavy rainstorm. The insulation got soaked and has stayed soppy wet in sections. When the washing machine goes into spin cycle, maybe the vibration shakes some of the water loose from the insulation and starts leaking through the drain hose opening in the coroplast.
We'll see what happens in June as we head out to Gillette.
