My fiance noticed an horrible smell in the cupboard where the washer is plugged in. At the time it was off and everything was cold, put in another load and the smell got worse. When I had a look the plug was hot and I found the fuse as in the photo. The plug was hot, the socket is a bit scorched but the wire wasn't hot away from the plug.
I'm guessing it's time for a new washer.
