This mildew smell is a common problem for people who own front-loading washers. That odor comes from mold growing inside your washing machine caused by residue and bacteria. Here are a few steps you can take that will help eliminate the cause and remove the smell.
The best way to clean your top loading washer is simple: 1  Select the hot water setting. 2  Select the âextra rinseâ option if your washer has that choice. 3  Add Â¾ cup of white vinegar to the bleach dispenser or fill to its max level.  Allow the cycle to run until it has completed.
