Your problem is going to be a blockage in the inlet to the drum. To fix this problem find the inlet pipe normally located above the door behid a flap of rubber..push your fingers up there to see if you can feel a blockage..If not your going to have to remove the lid of the machine to access the pipe that leads from the detergent drawer to the tub. Look at the rear top of the machine..You will see three screws....remove them and push back and lift the top panel (lid) now you should be able to access the pipe. Pull the pipe off and clean it out, i suspect you will find a socks or any other cloth blocking the pipe. or the you have a blockage in the fill hose, probably a bleach lid cap cardboard circle or detergent lid cardboard from the cap, or another foreign object, remove the object by removing the top of the machine, remove screws in back at top slide lid back remove the dispnser by pressing down on tab and pull it all the way out, remove single screw next to dispenser, see if you can remove the tube under the dispenser box attached to the tub, if not remove dispenser box and hose attached at bottom find blockage and re assemble, with a stroke of luck you may be able to remove the object by reaching in where the dispenser tray was. This will help. Thanks please keep updated.please do rate the solution positively .thank you for using fixya

Why is my Samsung washer dispensing softener during the wash cycle?

You would have to remove the top or the case and you will see a plastic box with a lid that directs water to the right section. From there you should be able to work out the problem.

Water leaking from deyergant compartment

Make sure these isn't any foreign objects in the tube that leads into the drum from the detergent tray.

Remove the top of the unit. 2 screws in the back. Top left and top right and slide the top off. Look under the tray and locate the tube and feel around. You may have to remove the tube to get a better look.

Which tray ( A,B or C) does the fabric conditioner go in?! Also, should it be put in at the beginning of the cycle?! Thank you!

Put it in tray B. You should see one end of what is a U shaped pipe (upside down) in the tray. The fab con should be put in the tray at the beginning of the wash cycle at the same time you fill the detergent tray.

Usually from left to right the main detergent / powder goes in the left compartment, the fab con in the centre compartment and the prewash / soaker / starch goes in the right side compartment.

The softener holder just fills with water but will not drain.

Is water left in the dispenser at the end of the cycle?
About two tablespoons of water remaining in the dispenser compartment at the end of the cycle is normal. At the end of the wash cycle, fresh water automatically cleans the dispenser. Check that the cycle is complete before opening the dispenser drawer.
Is the dispenser drawer clogged?
A clogged dispenser can block the flow of water through the dispenser and cause water to leak out. Manually remove the dispenser, and clean any leftover detergent or additives that could clog the flow of water through the dispenser. Also, check that the detergent drawer is always completely closed during the cycle. If the drawer is not closed completely, water can leak out onto the floor.
Are the additives dispensing too early?
Here are a few things that can cause the additives (detergent, fabric softener or liquid chlorine bleach) to dispense early:
  • Check that the dispenser is not overfilled. Do not fill past the MAX fill lines on the dispenser. Overfilling can cause early dispensing of liquid chlorine bleach and/or fabric softener.
  • Check that the detergent separator is in the correct position. For liquid detergent, the separator should be in the front position. For powdered detergent, the separator should be in the rear position. If the separator is in the rear position while you are using liquid detergent, it will dispense immediately, which is not how it is designed to work.
  • Use powdered HE detergent when using the DELAY WASH option. Liquid detergent may dispense prior to the start of wash.
Are the additives dispensing too late?
The additives will not dispense until the proper time if the DELAY WASH option is selected.
