Hi Dr.
We are finding water in the tub in the morning and sometimes after washing a load of clothes. I think it's the water valve . What part do I need to order and what are the steps to replacing and repairing the unit.

1. Unplug the washer and turn off the water supply to the washer.
2. Remove the top panel by removing the 3 screws and then sliding the panel back and lifting it up.
3. Remove the hot and cold water inlet hoses.
4. Remove the clamp and small hose from the outlet of the water valve.
5. Remove mounting screw
