Try cleaning the inside with white vinegar or baking soda or both.

What is a 'white spirit'?

England's "white spirits" is what we call "mineral spirits". I asked my friend in England.

Don't worry you can fix it! This happened to me:

Whilst washing my brushes I spilled a full jar of white spirit, mopped it up with a towel then washed the towel - disaster! the machine absolutely stunk! We tried all the stuff posted here - vinegar, bleach, even some special £6.99 descaling washing machine cleaner, but it still stunk. Then we tried washing lots of old /£shop towels which soak up the white spirit.

When they air the smell goes out of them and if you keep washing, drying, washing etc the smell transfers to the towels, and is dissipated in the air. took about 5/7 days of continuous washing though!

I think you should still try the bleach/vinegar first, then go on to this as its
expensive in water and electric. (but cheaper than buying a new machine.)

I have made the mistake of putting a piece of clothing soaked in white spirits in with my normal washing.
