Water stay in conditioner section of draw

Take out the dispenser draw & clean above where the conditioner section is . There is a few very small holes where the water comes out & are easily blocked you might need to use a pin or something similar .

Hello,
I dont know what model you have but you are correct in your assumption that the conditioner is siphoned out on the last rinse unless it is different for your model.Most machines I am familiar with operate in the first instance.Check that you have good water pressure to all compartments also get a toothbrush and clean the holes above the drawer even a bent piece of wire to unblock the small holes.

Good luck

I have a Bosch front load washing machine bought approx. 2006 model no. WF02467GB/01. The problem is that the pre wash draw section is taking in water towards the end of the wash cycle and the fabric conditioner section is remaining full of water

Hello,

Please remove the soap drawer and take off the top part of the conditioner section. A tube called the syphon tube will now be visible.

Wash out all of the conditioner residue from the draw and the top part which you removed, not forgetting the syphon tube and the part this fits into. These 2 parts need to be absolutely clean for the syphoning system to work correctly and is the only way the conditioner and water will flow out of the conditioner section of the draw. I always use my garden hose (set on high pressure) for this.

Reassemble the draw, fill it up with washing powder/liquid and conditioner (ensuring not to over fill the conditioner section) and push the draw fully back into the machine, then try a wash to see whether the conditioner has gone from the draw after the wash cycle completes.

If the conditioner is still in the draw then the problem is most likely a blockage in the upper part of the dispenser, where the water comes from. Remove the soap draw from the dispenser as before and with a stiff nylon bristled brush give the roof of the dispenser a good scrub clean to remove all soap and conditioner residue. As this residue may be very hard you may need to use some thin stiff wire to clear out the holes. Also, ensure that the front of the dispenser is clean along with the front of the draw, as the draw needs to be able to be pushed fully home.

Hopefully this will resolve your problem, if not please let me know.

Good luck.

Best regards,

Ian

You dont say which machine you have, but a lot of conditioner trays work by siphon action.

If at one end of the conditioner tray there is what looks like a closed off tube sticking up, this is the siphon. To remove it, it should just pull off. Check the tube is clean inside and out with no residues left from the conditioner. Also check the tube sticking up from the base of the conditioner tray - this should also be nice and clean, and should be clear of any obstructions. May be worth poking something like a cocktail stick down it just to make sure it's clear. Then push the closed off tube back on. The siphon action can be checked by pouring water into the conditroner tray - as the tray gets close to full the siphon action should kick in and then empy the tray.

Hope this is of some help.
