Possible Causes

Blocked dispenser jets, Low water pressure, Drawer or housing clogged with residue, Faulty inlet valve channel to dispenser

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off water and power before removing the top cover if needed.

Step-by-step checks:

  • Clean drawer: Remove the detergent drawer and wash it thoroughly under hot water, clearing all channels.
  • Clean housing jets: Use a small brush or toothpick to clear the water jets in the dispenser housing.
  • Check water pressure: Ensure adequate flow from the tap. Low pressure can prevent proper flushing.
  • Inspect inlet valve channels: If one compartment never flushes, the corresponding valve outlet may be blocked or the valve coil faulty. Clean or replace the valve.
