The circled light comes on and the washing machine stops working leaving dirty water inside. While it works, it has molten plastic smell to it.

This is written as if there's some sort of Harry Potter incantation that we can give him.

Are you sure it isn't the one I circled in green? I know how to easily fix it when that light comes on and it stops and leaves dirty water inside, and while it works it has a molten plastic smell to it, but I'm at a loss when it's the one you circled. Could you double check before I waste time posting the wrong spell.

OP did you mean this one I've circled in purple?
If the water stays a little murky and there's kind of a hot rubber smell, then yeah I know how to fix that.
Let me know.

OP, that is the 'Clean Pump' warning light. Something is clogging the pump or one of the filters. You could have googled your washer model manual and discovered this without making a thread, but at least now you know.

You don't, it's a piece of fucking junk and it is unlikely to be worth your time.

Replace it with a not-shit brand.

If only there was some recorded anthology which describes the functions and operations of a specific machine. Such a scroll might also contain a codex to demystify illumination patterns or errant functionality. Quite unfortunate that such a useful text has never been drafted...

Awesome, another worthless thread for a question which could have been answered just by reading the manual.

Drain screen is plugged. Burning smell is the pump overheating trying to suck water through the blockage.

>> No.2738324

This indicator lights up when the washing machine sees water entering too slowly or not at all (based on water level sensor timing).

The water inlet hose usually has a small plastic filter where it connects to the tap or on the washing machine itself. Clean it and the light should go away on the next cycle.

It's not a washing machine, Anon. It's a rock tumbler.

To be fair, picrel does look like it is asking for a specific spell

Something about feeding more jellyfish into the ocean vortex?
