Frigidaire Dryer leaking water
If your Frigidaire dryer is leaking water, start with the most likely causes so you can fix it fast: most leaks that appear outside the cabinet come from a worn or cracked fill hose or loose hose ends, so inspect the hose for small splits, check the fittings and replace rubber washers if needed. If water is appearing inside the drum, a cracked or clogged nozzle that sprays the hot mist is a frequent culprit, followed by other obvious sources such as a non steam dryer accidentally hooked to a water line. A damaged steam generator housing can also leak, as can loose hose connectors and, less commonly, a cracked water inlet valve. Check each component for visible cracks, secure connections, and signs of corrosion, and replace any damaged parts to stop a dryer leaking underneath or leaking into the drum. Enter your model number on RepairClinic.com to find the exact replacement part for your specific dryer and get diagrams and step-by-step guidance for the repair.
01 - Frigidaire Dryer Fill Hose
A water leak that is coming from outside the dryer cabinet may be caused by a damaged fill hose. Inspect the hose for small cracks or holes and confirm the hose is secured firmly to the inlet valve. A damaged hose will need to be replaced with a new one. If needed, install new rubber washers at the ends of the hose for a water tight seal.

02 - Frigidaire Dryer Nozzle
A water leak inside the dryer drum may be caused by a faulty nozzle, the component used to spray the hot mist. Inspect the nozzle for any cracks or signs of visible damage and replace the old nozzle with a new one if required.
Highly Likely
03 - Check for other sources of leaks
A non steam dryer is not connected to water and will not cause a leak. Look for other sources of leaks.
Common
04 - Frigidaire Dryer Steam Generator
A water leak inside the dryer drum may be caused by a faulty or damaged steam generator, the component that converts the incoming water supply to steam. Inspect the steam generator for any cracks in the housing and replace if visibly damaged.
Common
05 - Loose hose connector
Check and tighten hose connections. Install new rubber washers if needed.
Common
06 - Frigidaire Dryer Water Inlet Valve
A water leak that is coming from inside the dryer cabinet is likely caused by a damaged water inlet valve. Inspect the valve for any cracks in the housing and confirm the valve hoses are secured firmly to the valve and are in good condition. If the inlet valve's housing is cracked or damaged, the component should be replaced with a new one.
