Sour clothes smell in washer

My washer constantly smells sour. If clean clothes are left for an hour, they come out smelling sour. How do I fix this?

Hi @tammilight

Try pouring two cups of white vinegar into the washer tub and run a no clothes, no detergent added, hot water wash cycle i.e. hot water and vinegar only and check if that removes the odour.

You can pour some vinegar into the detergent dispenser as well
