how can i fix my washing machine that smells like its burning?

i have a whirlpool heavy duty super capacity (6 cycle 2 speed)washing machine, model # LSV6233ANO, that all of a sudden started to smell like it's burning when it's on the heavy duty or normal washing cycle. it's not a fire burning smell, more like a belt burning smell. But i know nothing about washing machines. What do I do?

Hello,

Does the washer agitate and spin ok? It could be the beginning of a worn out coupler which your machine uses instead of a belt.
