Default musty, moldy smell coming from washer
Model Number: 110.20872990   Brand: Sears   Age: 1 - 5 years   

hi all, newbie here, appreciate any and all help, lord knows I need it.

anyway, my washer, a top loader, has a very strong mold, musty smell,when not in use. Smell is strong, you can detect it whenever you get near the machine.

I notice that during operation, I do not see any recirculation of the water.

There is no leakage going on.

I would like to lift the top of the machine to get a better look at around the drum, make sure nothing is clogging up, or hopefully the problem will present itself.

can someone tell me how to lift the top to do this...???
any ideas on this smell thing...???
does this unit recirculate the water during operation...???

help please......

thank you all, pb
