Hi ! Half full the washer with water( no clothes ! ) , then add some baking soda and white vinegar, then finish the cycle , if necessary repeat . Or you can by a washing machine cleaner / freshener called afresh . Good luck !
Run 1 cup hydrogen peroxide or lemon juice through the cleaning cycle. Then an empty cycle. If it persists, wipe down all gaskets with peroxide or white cleaning vinegar (it will kill mold spores). You might need to raise the cover to access wiping down gaskets.
