With Top Load washers, it is not uncommon to have a small amount of water at the bottom of the wash basket after a load is complete. The amount of water is typically a 1/2 cup of water or less, and is considered normal. This will occur when water becomes trapped in the fill nozzle (fill tube) at the top of the wash basket after the water shuts off after filling. Often the nozzle doesn't immediately drain all of the remaining water, so after some time (even a few hours later), the water tension holding in the water breaks and the last amount of water is released from the fill nozzle. It is similar to the small spurt of water that sometimes comes out of a bathroom shower head after the water is turned off. If more than this, we suggest to check the drain hose for kinks or improper installation. Straighten drain hose and make sure washer is not sitting on it. Top of drain outlet should be less than 6 ft. above floor.
