I was washing a load of clothes in hot water with bleach. And I found dirt coming through the drum holes onto the clothes after the final rinse. Tried to wash them again, but the clothes just got dirtier. I don't know what to clean or check to fix the problem. All the other functions of the washer seems to be working normally. It's an old Maytag top loader. I never use softener, and even filling the drum with vinegar and leaving it for a week didn't help. I live in Israel where the water is very hard and use a detergent that is supposed to eliminate limescale.
Hello. the hot water and bleach partially cleaned some of the builtup residue in your tub. If you can find a product called CLR [calcium, lime, rust] use a cup of that in your machine with a few old towels. Run your longest and hottest cycle. Repeat if necessary. Joe
