Last time this was mentioned I think the likely answer was that it was locked in a failed update loop. It would download a corrupted file, fail the update, then start the download again. All day, every day.

It's a washing machine... Who the hell thought it needed an operating system!

We've been using washing machines for decades, successfully, that just used mechanical timers. Every so often you'd have to change out the timer or some belt sure to wear. It was cheap and easy to do.
