A puddle behind the washer may come from the valve, coupling, hose or drain. Because electricity and water share the area, never touch wet electrical parts; shut off the water safely first.

Locate the wet area. If a cord, outlet or electrical part is wet or the floor is flooded, do not approach it; seek qualified help to isolate power safely.
Close the accessible water supply valves and stop using the appliance according to the maker's instructions.
Visually inspect each inlet hose for cracks, splits, crushing or kinks; replace damaged hoses with suitable parts.
Look for moisture at the tap and machine connections, noting whether a coupling or rubber washer may be failing.
Do not dismantle water or electrical connections without a safe setup and appropriate competence. Use maker-approved parts and never overtighten fittings.
After safe restoration, check for fresh leaks. Contact a plumber for tap-side leakage or the manufacturer for persistent machine-side leakage.
