Preserve the useful detail
Record the model, cycle stage, visible connections, shutoff, drain behavior, and whether water continues when the appliance stops.
The decision on display
Do not transfer the hazard
Do not move a heavy machine across hoses or reach through water to disconnect power. Use only a known safe control.
Make the proposed work comparable
Separate plumbing connections, appliance repair, moving and reinstalling, floor protection, electrical or gas work, and full-cycle testing.
