Joel S Derry , NH January 26, 2016 Odor and mold Our washing machine door boot seal was getting moldy and causing odor problems. Cleaning tablets and bleach weren't helping so it was time to be replaced. While I had the top and front off I changed all the hoses that could be collecting soap scum and mold, all other wetted parts were removed and washed. The video on the door boot seal, and inlet valve assembly were extremely helpful in understanding how these parts are removed and reassembled. Although the door boot seal is the most visible part that could show mold, the drain hose and drain pump to drum hose were by far the dirtiest, and must be washed or replaced if trying to eliminate smells. The whole project took me 3-4 hours to complete (I have done washing machine repairs before), but the machine runs and smells like new. Note: The included spring retainer tools were extremely helpful when putting the door boot seal back together.
