Possible Causes

Clogged dispenser drawer or siphon, Low water pressure to dispenser jets, Build-up of detergent residue in Asko dispenser housing, Faulty inlet valve channel feeding dispenser

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer before removing the dispenser if accessing internal parts.

  • Step 1 – Clean drawer: Remove the detergent drawer completely. Disassemble any removable siphon caps and rinse thoroughly under hot water.
  • Step 2 – Clean housing: Use a small brush to clean the dispenser housing where the drawer slides in.
  • Step 3 – Check water jets: Run a short fill cycle with the drawer removed and observe water flow from the dispenser nozzles. Weak flow may indicate clogged nozzles or a faulty inlet valve channel.
  • Step 4 – Use proper detergent: Use HE detergent and avoid overfilling compartments.
