There's stuff they sell just to clean HE front loaders...pretty sure they sell it at Home Depot. Also, try to leave the door cracked open when not in use.

Exactly. I leave the door open when it is not in use. The rubber seal can get moldy if there is no ventilation. At least that is what the Sears guy told me.

There is stuff called Washer Magic.

So I found a small puddle under my washing machine. Opened it up and checked the hoses... bone dry. I checked the belts, motor and pump and I can't find a fkn leak. PK any suggestions?

Check where the washing machine waste hose goes into the house drain.

Had that once where it was backed up with lint.

Check where the discharge hose hooks into the back of the washer...sometimes, they'll push out a bit.

Or, try sticking a piece of cardboard under it and check it after you run it...might help you figure out exactly where it's leaking from (I used to do that on my cars)...

Drop a quarter into your machine. When it drains the quarter will clear out the built up lint in your drain line as it passes.

You should hook the motor up to an generator.
