Vinegar. Add 1-2 cups of distilled white vinegar to your washer. Turn the setting as hot as it will go and make it so that it is the largest load possible.

Rinse the inside of the washer by running one final wash and rinse cycle with nothing added to it. Remove any parts that will be removed and wash. Take your fabric softener dispenser, bleach dispenser, or lint trap of (if any of these parts remove) and wash them in hot soapy water (dish detergent is a good soap choice for this project).

Wipe any dispensers that don't remove. Wash the underside of the lid and clean the agitator if there is any additional evidence of dirt. ...
