Bad smell from washing machine
We have a 4 year old Samsung washing machine (Eco Bubble Quiet Drive
WF0804W8E I think it is called). It has been used every couple of days or so since new without any problem. When we came back from a 2 week holiday away in October I noticed quite a bad mouldy smell coming from its direction. I removed the dispenser tray and found that behind its housing was mouldy and black. I cleaned the area as best as I could and then ran the machine on max temperature on empty. I also cleaner the filter. Unfortunately the smell is still there and it seems to come from inside the hole into which the detergent and conditioner are fed into the machine. I hope that makes sense, but I put a couple of photos here just in case: http://tinypic.com/r/10gwoit/9 http://tinypic.com/r/ilhhyo/9 (note that the black marks in the photos have been thoroughly scraped and would simply not go away). Any idea what do do to resolve this? I think that it came with 5 year warranty, so I can try that, but am hoping that it is something simple€¦ |
