Problem for AEG Lavamat 72640 Front Load Washer
Horrible smell coming from the washing machine
By lucy_a_cotto on Mar 31, 2009
The problem started a few weeks ago with our washing coming out smelling musty but we thought it might be because we were putting it on in the morning and then not emptying it out until the evening. But now there is a 'standing water' smell constantly coming from the sink drain and from the back of the washing machine.
We have tried putting Mr Muscle down the sink, cleaning out the washing machine drawer, the washing machine filter (at the front of the machine) and putting a boil wash on. However, nothing has worked and the smell is getting worse by the day and we can't now do any washing without it smelling horrendous.
Dynarod and a washing machine repair company have been to visit and they have replaced the pipe under the sink and installed a new hose for the washing machine. Once they left everything was fine and the smell seemed to have gone. However, we ran a boil wash to clear any residue and the drum still smelt horrible. Since then we have done a wash and unfortunately the smell is still there.
It can't be the water supply as the dishwasher would also smell. Please help! Do you think we just need a new machine? Our current machine is AEG and is probably nearing 8-10 years old.
thanks
