My ASKO washing machine, 10505, is leaking water
from the front when in the spin cycle. Is this the
gasket around the glass in the door? Is This something
I can fix?
My problem turned out to be water coming into the washer too quickly. I moved the washer to a new location which had a better flowing ball valve connecting the input water (as opposed to the previous connection's globe valve). The input water flow was fast enough to overwhelm the small blue "fabric conditioner" holder in the left front of the detergent drawer. This part of the drawer is filled as the last rinse before the final spin. The small blue tray has a siphon drain that dilutes the conditioner before it enters the drum. Looks like too much water can easily overflow or cause splashing because the siphon drain is slow. The solution is to reduce the flow (partially close the input valve) or remove the small fabric conditioner tray. A good test is to open the drawer during this part of the cycle. With the drawer out, the incoming water misses the fabric conditioner tray and flows out quickly without splashing or overflowing.

I have the same problem. Seemed to occur after I moved the washer to a different location. Did you fix the leaking?
