Gary G Yankton , SD December 28, 2014 Intially i thought that it was a bad hose but it ended up being much more then the hose Replaced the hose to fix the minor problem, but was unable to fix the major problem that was unknown in the beginning, which was a hole in the washer made by the heating element. 3 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 15-30 minutes
