balogna, You need to get a good look at the fill valve to see whats going on. To do this, remove the two phillip screws on the back side of each console end. Then move the console foward and tilt up. You will see two gold color clips on each end that hold the cabinet to the frame, take a flat blade screw driver and pry up on the end of these clips to remove. Next, unplug the lid switch harness. Now you can lift up on the cabinet from the back and pull off the washer. Make sure all connections are tight under the console. On the right side of the back panel you will see the fill valve. Make sure the harnesses are on and the hoses are on. You can ohm out each valve if you have an ohmeter. To test the fill with the cabinet off you are going to have to jump the lid switch. Using a insulated piece of wire jump the connections on the harness. The green is ground so jump the other two. This will be able to give you a birds eye view of what is going on and where the unit is leaking. Best of luck.

At the end of the cycle, the wash plate nutates for
approximately 30 seconds to fluff the clothing after the
final spin. The action of fluffing causes the outer wash
plate seal to rub against the stainless steel basket while
they are both relatively dry. This condition causes the gray
discoloration.
RESOLUTION:
An updated machine control, part number 8542693, is
now available. The updated control reduces the fluff time
from 30 seconds to 8 seconds, allowing the clothing to be
fluffed, without causing discoloration.
Gray marks or smudges can be washed out of clothing
after wiping down the basket. The consumer should use
the recommended amount of HE detergent and the hottest
water safe for the fabric or hand wash the garment under
running water. In either case, the fabric must be cleaned
prior to running through the dryer

This may not be relevant, but by design, bleach does NOT dispense in the Buly/Bedding, Kids Wear, and Silk/Ultra Delicate cycles. If you try to use it, it remains in the dispenser.
As for the yucky smell, leave the door open when not in use.

Turn water off. Remove hoses and clean the rust out of the strainers at hose end. If they are clogged they will sound funny when water goes through them.
Hello friend, I appreciate your post!
I see you're getting brown stains on some of your loads of laundry within your Frigidaire washer. I have completed some research in regards to brown stains and that could be iron or manganese in the water supply, water pipes, or water heater. In order to restore discolored loads try a rust remover safe for fabric. Do not use chlorine bleach to remove these stains as it may intensify discoloration. I hope this is helpful. -Matt
