Maybe some reminder or encouragement for posters to provide a follow up . Many times the poster may have a strange or unusual problem where the resolution of such problem can help masters in future diagnoses. The info could be invaluable. Maybe some pledge to post accurate model numbers and to post a follow up could be a requirement before having the privilege to post.

A good idea---though impossible to enforce.
With *closure*---much can be learned about appliance faults and the solutions to them.
There's a certain percentage of visitors to the forum that do the following...
APOLLO 13: "Houston, we have a problem."
HOUSTON: "Try flipping switches 6 & 9 on fuse buss number two."
APOLLO 13: "Stand-by"

To eliminate:
Musty odor
L-O-N-G cycle times
Dingy/yellowing whites
Suds error message
Slow spin speeds
Intermittent water leaks (from rear of washer)
And other annoying symptoms which vary brand-to brand.
Read below:
The *correct* amount of HE (High Efficiency) detergent that should be used in any front load or agitatorless top load washer with tub sizes 3.0 cu ft and larger is as follows:
HE: (2) Tablespoons Per Wash Load
HE 2X: (1) Tablespoon
HE 3X: (1) Teaspoon
Perform a TUB CLEAN CYCLE every (4) months.
Use: "Tide Washing Machine Cleaner"
