Default Smells hot during fill
Brand: Whirlpool
Model Number: LSB6300PW4
Age: More than 10 years

Once in a while, while filling with water, the timer stays in one position for up to 10 minutes, and the washer smells of hot varnish, like wires or motor getting hot. It does NOT overfill, and this is before the motor starts, so it is not belts or idlers. It only does this sometimes, the next time it will work fine.

Any thoughts?

Sorry, I botched the original post. This washer is only about 3 years old.
