Noticed after the past few washes that the bleach dispenser is full of water. Not a problem since I don't use it often. Last couple of loads the fabric softener dispenser is also filled with water when the load is done washing. I'm wondering if something's clogged. Has anyone else had this problem?
This is a problem common to virtually all front-loaders. Pull the dispenser drawer right out (it is designed to come right out - you might just need to give it a bit of a jiggle to get it past the stop) Remove the cover/caps from the drawer (sometimes this is a snap-on cover over the back of the drawer, sometimes a top-hat shaped cover over the siphon spigots). Give everything a thorough clean off with hot water (scrubbing with an old toothbrush helps), then reassemble. A.
I have done all of that and it still fills up. I have even run a load without the snap-on cover in place for the bleach dispenser. I have had my washer for at least 3 years and this issue has only showed up in the last year. I seems to be progressively worse. After I looked closely at the dispenser, I don't see how the water drained in the first place, especially with the cover in place.

I have the same problem and have totally cleaned it up but as soon as the next wash it happens again! Cleaning it is not the fix! What about raising the front of the washer a tiny bit?
