Frigidaire Washer leaking water
If your Frigidaire washer is leaking, first inspect the drain pump, which can crack or develop worn bearings and leak water. Next, check the washing machine hoses, including the tub-to-pump hose, for splits, loose connections, or other damage. A torn tub seal can also cause a washer leaking from the bottom, and water that reaches the tub bearings may damage them, so replacing the tub seal and bearing kit together is often necessary. This repair requires significant disassembly. If the leak appears near the front of the appliance, make sure the dispenser drawer is fully closed and check it for cracks or damage. Using the wrong detergent or too much detergent can create excess suds in a front-load washer, allowing water and foam to escape through the overflow system. Before replacing a part, identify where the water originates and inspect nearby hoses and connections. Enter your Frigidaire washer model number to find the exact replacement drain pump, hose, tub seal, bearing kit, or dispenser drawer for your specific washing machine.
01 - Frigidaire Washing Machine Drain Pump
The drain pump pumps water out the drain hose. If the drain pump is cracked or damaged, or if the bearings are worn out, the drain pump may leak water. The drain pump is not repairable—if the pump is leaking water, replace it.

02 - Frigidaire Washing Machine Hose
Hoses apart from the fill hose or drain hose could be reponsible for a leaking washer. You should inspect all of the appliance's hoses, such as tub-to-pump hoses, for damage or loose connections and replace if necessary.

03 - Frigidaire Washing Machine Tub Seal and Bearing Kit
The tub seal might be torn, causing water to leak from the seal. If the tub seal is leaking water, water may leak through the tub seal and into the tub bearings. This can cause the bearings to fail. For this reason, if the tub seal is leaking water, replace both the tub seal and the tub bearings. Be aware that this is a complicated repair and will require disassembling most of the washer.

05 - Frigidaire Washing Machine Dispenser Drawer
If a washer is leaking water, you should confirm the dispenser drawer is completely closed and free of damage. If the drawer is cracked, the component could be responsible for the leak and should be replaced.

06 - Wrong type or incorrect amount of detergent
If you have a front-load washer, be certain that you are using an HE - high efficiency - detergent. HE detergent is formulated to be low-sudsing and to be used with the lower water levels utilized by front-load washers. Front-load washers have a small overflow system usually on the back of the appliance. If you have too many suds, they are probably escaping from there.
Highly Likely
07 - Frigidaire Washing Machine Transmission
Since the transmission shaft extends into a top-load washer's inner tub, a transmission bearing or tub seal that is damaged could potentially cause the tub to leak near the motor area. For some models, these components may only be sold as an assembly, you may need to replace the entire transmission assembly to solve the leaking problem.
