You , are an absolute treasure. Thankyou Thankyou. Just fixed my softener dispenser tray after 3 weeks of having to empty each after each wash. Even me who doesnt do fix 😂, at 63, found this easy to follow.

I've tried so many things to solve this problem, but after watching this video i took the dispenser drawer out and looked up - yes, it was mage minging! Thank you!

My partner wasn't happy about me using her toothbrush for this cleaning exercise, but it did the trick 🙂 Thanks!

Thanks for this."your partners toothbrush "🤣🤣

Yes sir!! Fixed it. Didn't realise the jets were at the top lol. Cleaned with wire. Softener working 💪 Thanks, great vid

I have had this problem for weeks, with the conditioner just sitting there. I have today just learnt about cleaning the jet nozzles above the tray. Thank you so much. My washing machine is now working properly again.

Such an easy fix, so simple I feel stupid for not sussing it out on my own. Thanks mate.

Love the partner's toothbrush joke 🤣....im gonna give this a go tomorrow on my Siemens, it has a similar anatomy to yours. Thanks for the video

Thanks for the video I ve been told to have the dispenser open once you done your washing to dry out to prevent it from mould building up

Hi, I also had those holes clogged, sometimes it didn't release fabric softener, but in the end the kitchen was washed out. The scale in the inlet nozzles was to blame. It is best to remove the top cover of the washing machine, close the water supply, disconnect the hose from the nozzles and remove the entire detergent dispenser and fabric softener and clean it under running water. It's more complicated than punching with a wire and a brush, but faster and more efficient. Unfortunately, in this case it is not uncommon to add calgon to the drum, for example, because there is a blockage at the inlet.

This just fixed my GE Washing Machine, had no idea it could get so dirty in there. Thanks! Edit: also my problem was like another commenter said where the softener bin was filled with water not draining

Thanks for posting Lurgs - nicely put together with just the right touch of humour. Now I'm off to find a 'suitable' toothbrush ;)

Glad I found this, fixed my washing machine. Thank you!

Worked 1st time. Followed the instructions to the letter and problem solved. Cheerz fella you've just saved me £100 odd.

Very useful, thanks....now I know where to clean and how, I'm going to use some antifungicide wash to really kill off the mould - this deserves a LOT more likes - cheers!

Worked a treat. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction 👍

Just attempted this and it fixed my problem, the water is draining correctly now, ty!

Useful video. I have had a bosch machine for some 13 years, and a year or two back it really started to produce smelly washing. I did end up taking the whole filter out, and what you saw as buildup on the underside was nothing compared to the non visible side. I had to take the whole top of the machine off to get at the damn thing though. Other things you could use are mold and mildew spray occasionally followed by a rinsing hot wash, and recently I discovered using a water pick is very good too.

Very useful (it's amazing what you can find on KZfaq). My problem was slightly different with my Bosch machine although I have done everything you demonstrate in the video. I have been finding that after a wash, the fabric softener drawer had emptied of Comfort but now contained a lot of clear water with what looked like pieces of hardened soap floating in it. Thanks for all these videos = I'll recommend them to friends and family. Stay safe.

You really do learn something new everyday

Thank you for your video.I have a Maytag washer the best advice I can give you is when you are done with your washing. leave the door open at all times.

Big lol at the thought of using partners tooth brush and this was great info was a great help 👍

Thank you, just sorted my blocked dispenser. Works perfectly again

Thanks for this video! I have this problem with my washing machine but was reluctant to take the draw out because I thought it would just come out by pulling. When it didn't come out all the way I just left it out of fear of breaking it. Didn't know that you'd have to press that blue button down a bit to get it out until I watched your video.

Thanks for the helpful video. I'm giving the wash a run through, and hoping I fixed the clog.

Great video! just goes to show you can find anything on KZfaq. I suspect one reason this clogs more often is if you always wash in cold water. Cold just won't dissolve softener very well.....

I clear the detergent tray regularly but did not know that the blue part can be removed to clean,, thanks for the video.

Thanks, off to try it. Great video.....So I did it and the drawer was dry after a wash. Excellent.

Trying this on my beko, will keep you updated!! Also, partners toothbrush!! 😂😂😂 Nice one!

Haha I love this! I learned all the information I needed and had a good laugh the whole way through!

Very useful and saved our washing machine. Thank you 😊

Absolutely love the humour (or is it? ha ha). Can't go wrong with a good cuppa after. Got this culprit on our 2014 washing machine and nothing else is wrong with it other than this so going to give a go. Thank you! :) 💞

A brilliant demonstration. Thanks for sharing👍👍. I have to use my own toothbrush, though😝 .

Pretty sure no one has cleaned the washing machine in our new apartment since they installed it, glad I found this video! You're funny too :)

Thanks. Worked perfectly on Hoover Dynamic next machine too!

Thank you, thank you! I have a different brand, but it was the same principle and mine is working perfectly now. One tiny issue was that I forgot to remove the rag I was using to block the toothbrush from falling down the hole. As soon as I saw the water on the floor, I knew what it was. Everything is great now. :D

Excellent and easy to understand. Thanks so much

Hi! Your video really helped! My washer is like a new machine again! 😀

Thanks for this I just cleaned my detergent/conditioner drawer

Thanks mate, that was really useful, I’m now off to try it, I knew keeping my ex partners tooth brush was a good idea.

Thanks so much for this video I didn’t know the keys were at the top . I love this you so funny😂😂 subscribed too

thank you very much, this was it! you saved my machine, and yea some money too! good man!

Great tips, thanks for making this video!!!

Very helpful thank you ... and really made me laugh when you said "take the partner's toothbrush"!

Yep great video and clearly explained... My case was a bit worse though so had to end up taking the top of the machine off and removing the Top part of the dispenser , Once you have the top "roof" part separated from the main box, it (unwillingly) separates into 2 parts allowing you to get to the gunge inside that was blocking the water that should have flowed into the Pythagoras cup to dispense the conditioner into the drum. Even though the inside of the dispenser (what could be seen with the drawer out) was clean as a whistle, and had poked the holes to clear this didn't work sufficiently, only the strip down worked. If you can't get the thing separated (use a strong flatbed screwdriver at the tabs) you can but the roof as a part - it is about 25 quid - thanks again though Lurgs, you got me on the right track. Now we will leave the drawer open , and have turned the rad up a little in our utility as it is cold so hopefully wont happen again so badly. I also have the problem of my better half complaining I'm using her toothbrush , and further complaining when I don't put it back - unbelievable! 😁

Your british humor is on point 😂

Thank you from a older lady who now has to do all these jobs by herself now.

Awesome video and tips! Thank you!

Well done for the advice! Sorted 👏🏻👏🏻

Hi Lurgs, I have this issue but it’s water that’s left behind in the fabric conditioner compartment - I shall try out your instructions and hope it works for water too! Thanks

The toothbrush joke was brilliant. Really made me laugh through the frustration.

Great tips thanks! And I’m laughing so much at your jokes!

Helpful video, thank you for sharing

Thank you so much!!! This helped my machine!

Partners toothbrush 😂😂😂😂😂

Good evening sir, Thanku very much for your guidance, with regards

Thanky you,all sorted now,flushed through with domestos

Great video! Thanks for the tip!

Thank you for this guide. I was going to call out a repair guy, which would have cost me £120.

Haha love this 😂 Thankyou for the great advice

Useful video, thanks alot

"use your partner's toothbrush" You funny bugger! Easy fix, thank you so much!

Thanks a lot 👍 great information

fab! did exactly this really helpful

Thank you for your help ☺️

Thanks . Hilarious using partner’s toothbrush 😅

Good tip! I stopped using conditioner as I found it made the drawer go mouldy and scummy. Didn't notice a difference with clothes either. Waste of money!

"Take your partner's toothbrush and give it a really good scrub." Hehehe

Thank you brother 😊🙏✨

cheers, sorted my issue. Other half none to pleased though after looking at toothbrush 🤣

5:46 hahaha Thank you Lurgs, it works on my LG machine

Thanks mate, I ran descaler through 🤬 I ran bleach through 🤬 I washed the drawer 🤬 I brushed the jet section 🤬 I watched your video 🧑‍🔧 I cleaned the jets with a blunt cocktail stick 🙂 I scrubbed with a toothbrush 🙂 I ran on a hot wash 🙂 😁😁😁😁...yayyyyyyyy Thank you.

Thank you soo much bro👍

Thanks, this fixed mine

My girlfriend (from Taiwan) asked why the cup of tea was relevant. I said its a sign of a true Englishman, and I intend on doing the exact same thing once I've cleared my blockage.

Really helpful, and made me laugh, great stuff.

Super super super thank you sir

Thank you very much.

Thanks so much, you’ve saved me a fortune!

Thanks mate. This helped

great video, I am having an issue with my hotpoint filling with water in liquid dispenser. Any idea what that could be?

A tip: when you do the empty wash at the end - use 250g of citric acid in the detergent compartment. It will clean and de-scale the machine. Cheapest citric acid u can buy is on ebay.

Your partners toothbrush, very funny!!!

Bonjour....bravo pour vos inerventions..si le bac a detergent se remplis d eau est ce que je dois faire pareil? Merci

Great info cool guy 😀

Thanks a lot ❤

Partners toothbrush!! Done! 🤣🤣🤣 Thanks btw! 😊

Hi @LurgsHowToGuides Great video! However I'm now super worried now since my machine is not turning on at all now :( I followed all these steps expect for running an empty rinse at the end, and I recalled from this video is something I should have definitely done! Just for my sanity, was this step absolutely necessary to avoid damaging the machine or just another complementary step to make sure it was properly cleaned?

Awesome video and v funny too!

thats awesome! getting your wife part of the act. ^_^

Hello, thank you for the video, it was very instructing. One of my washing machines is a manual German old Hanseatic make. Lately the fabric softener dispenser is not emptying. But I can't figure at how to remove it. I would appreciate it if you can help with this problem. All the best.

Stop with the jokes!! I fall for them every time !! 😂😂😂😭😭😭

I could not stop laughing at "the partners toothbrush " 🤣🤣🤭

Thanks

Thank u. It worked.😇

Lovlee stuff!

Lifesaver !❤

Hi, thanks for the tips! I cleaned the dispenser and jet holes (they didn't have mold, just soap leftovers), I made the machine work without clothes and then I put some clothes to wash. However, after just one use, the softener's dispenser is again filed with water and some softener leftovers. Is there a case it's the fault of the softener ( it's a bit more dense that usually)?

I think I'm in love haha. Please come do mine!
