When Water Is Supposed To Drain, Smells Like The Unit Is Burning.

I've owned the unit for one and half years. When water is supposed to drain, smells like the unit is burning. There was a recall in 2009 with a similar problem. Could it be the same

Hi bestladylord, thank you for your inquiry!

Based on the Frigidaire laundry center posted above (FFLE1011MW) and according to my research I do not show that the manufacturer had a recall on their laundry centers. However, from what you described it sounds like you either have a problem with the drain motor or wash motor that is creating the burning odor as well. This is not a typical DIY job. It is advisable to contact an appliance repair tech to accurately diagnose and make the appropriate repairs. Best regards! - Chris
