Margaret for Model Number FAFW3801LW3 I recently replaced the door bellow on my machine due to wearing out. Your youtube video games is a great help. Thanks. When I tested the machine, there was a burning rubber smell. The drum was rubbing against the bellow. What may cause that and is it something I can fix or do I get a service person to check it? If I can fix it how? Thanks! Look forward to hearing from you.
Answer Margaret, As long as the lip of the bellow was installed over the lip of the outer tub correctly then it was a successful install. Make sure there are no leaks. And the rubber smell will go away, that gasket is dry and touches the inner drum slightly. Just run a load with no clothes and the smell should go away. Read More...
