Front loading or top loading washing machine?

Update:- looks like a one off issue. Engineer ran test mode. No leak. He opened back side and dried water stains at the bottom of the plastic. It is a mystery now. All good.

Looks like nothing was resolved. If the problem is still there you will know.

Test mode might be too short to test for a leak. A rinse & spin cycle might have been better

He did all that too. Filled the machine drum halfway with water and then kept it spinning for atleast 10 mins. Maybe I keep the custom inlet pipe behind the Washing machine after use and it ,ay have some residual water which dropped when i was taking it out. Anyways coming weekend will get to know.

When you say custom inlet pipe do you mean you reconnect & disconnect the inlet or drain pipe every time you use the machine?

The plastic at the bottom is to prevent rats from entering the machine. Since you don't use a stand there is no chance for rats to enter the machine.

That suggests the leak was internal as water collected in the rat trap.

Yes I need to. There is not that feasibility to keep it connected.

My bad. There were no dried stains of water. I.e no evidence of water leakage. Edited the original comment.
