Check that both water connections (hot and cold) are connected and on. If there's no cold water supply, the washer will just hum when it tries to do a cold water rinse.
Run the washer through a wash cycle (no laundry, though) with very hot water and a cup of bleach. This should remove the mildew and odors from the washer. Just be sure to let it go through the entire wash and rinse cycle. Then leave the lid to the washer open to let it air dry.
rinse them first, then wash them
To remove fabric softener residue from your washer, mix equal parts of white vinegar and water and run a hot water cycle. You can also clean the dispenser drawer and compartment thoroughly with a mixture of warm water and dish soap. Lastly, run a rinse cycle with just water to ensure all residue is removed.
Does the washer not work at all, or does it just not work when it's trying to rinse? It may be a lid switch. If the washer does not work at all, it may be the timer. Pull the timer from the unit and check to see if any of the "fingers" are stuck, sticking, or burnt. If so, change it. The timer is the "Brains" of the washer... it tells it when to start, cycle, & stop. Sounds to me like this is more than likely your problem. The washer allowed water to be drawn in and then went to "L".
If you have stains from a children's watercolor set, pretreat them and throw the clothes in the washer on a hot water cycle. Adult watercolors depend more on the concentration. If you have very dilute amounts of the paint, just pretreat and throw in the washer. If you have very concentrated paint on your clothes, rinse as much of it away as possible before you pretreat and wash them.
A friend of mine did this and it worked so I tried it and it worked for me also. Just put them in the washer and wash and rinse them in COLD water. When they're finished, put them out in the sun to dry. It worked so good I washed two pairs.
I wash mine in the washer on gentle cycle with just a tiny bit of detergent and add fabric softener to the rinse, then put it in the dryer until it's dry. I only use cotton or polyester batting. This will pre-shrink the cotton. I've never had any problem with the batting separating during this process.

Well, isn't that just lovely? When someone hums around you, it could mean they are feeling comfortable and at ease in your presence. It's like a little melody of their happiness and contentment. Just enjoy the sweet sound and let it bring a smile to your heart.
There are numerous cleaners out there that can do the job; Simple Green and Fantastik are just a few of them. Add the cleaner or detergent to the affected area and scrub it- then you can use a pressure washer to rinse the cleaner off. The website for Vinyl Siding World has instructions on how to use a pressure washer, and the different cleaners that are available.
To clean the rinse dispenser in your dishwasher, first, disconnect the appliance from power and water. Remove the rinse dispenser, if possible, and rinse it under warm water to remove any detergent residue. Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soapy water to scrub away any buildup, then rinse thoroughly. Reassemble the dispenser and run a short cycle with just water to ensure it's clean before using it again.
