Possible Causes
Stuck dispenser solenoid valve, Blocked dispenser jets, Faulty diverter valve motor (if fitted), Wiring fault to dispenser assembly
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the appliance and turn off water supply before removing the top cover.
- Clean dispenser drawer: Remove the detergent drawer and wash it thoroughly under warm water, clearing all compartments and siphon caps of residue.
- Clean dispenser housing: Use a small brush to clean the water jets and channels in the dispenser housing. Blocked jets can cause misrouting of water and trigger errors.
- Inspect dispenser valves: With the top cover removed, locate the dispenser inlet valves and any diverter mechanisms. Check wiring connectors and look for signs of sticking or corrosion.
- Test solenoids (advanced): Use a multimeter to check coil resistance of dispenser valves. Replace any that are open circuit or shorted.
- Reassemble and test: Refit the drawer and top cover, restore water and power, and run a rinse cycle to confirm correct dispenser operation.
