washing machine query

echo

apologies if this is the wrong section.for the last few weeks the fab conditioner bit ( i use vinegar) hasn't been emptying.nothing appears to be blocked ( not that i'd know where to look anyway) and i've poked around but it just won't empty.has anybody else had this?

echo

i must add that water does go into the compartment but nothing goes out.

TAG

Pull the dispenser drawer out and give it a good clean. They do get a bit gunked up. Run hot water through the fab softner bit until the water runs through freely. An old toothbrush usually does the trick.

echo

i do that on a regular basis ( and the holes at the top of the drawer) and there were are blockages-the hole where the compartment is totally clear.

squeaky

Yes, it'll be clogged "somewhere" in there.
