GE washing machine. Top loader.
smelled a HOT smell.Sort an electrical hot smell. I lifted the lid on the machine and it was not spinning as it should have been at that point in the cycle.
I could hear the pump working but there was still about 4 inches of water in the tub. The switch on the lid is working.
So,I unplugged it and let it sit for a couple hours. Went back to see if I could diagnose anything. I plugged it back in and it finished the cycle as it should have.
Does this sound electronic to anyone or could this be a belt that got too warm to provide traction but was fine once it cooled off for a couple hours ??
