Debara K Garrison , IA August 17, 2016 The washing machine was leaking at the point where the empty hose went down into the wall My husband figured out that we needed the plug that goes around the hose entry point. It was an easy fix for him and no leaks. The part came quickly which was great since we have a lot of laundry. 10 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
