I now have a leak I need to solve.

It looks like the rubber grommet between the tank and the button trap is leaking.
How difficult is it to replace this or remove silicone seal it?

Requires disassembly of pulling the spin basket and outer tub to access that tub outlet hose, as it's called. The outlet port "boss" of the tub sits upon and compresses the upper flange of the outlet hose.

I think I'll give it a try.

Do I need a spanner wrench to remove the drum or can I use a push and hammer?
