THAT PART WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED

Hi,

Here is a tip that I wrote about what I found out about the fabric softener not dispensing into the washer...

Fridgidaire Washing Machine Fabric Softner not going into washer

We have the very same problem. Extremely frustrating, will not dispense bleach for the load intended, then it releases bleach for a load - causing bleaching on colored fabrics.

Hi,
Here is a tip that I wrote about the problem I found with my fridgidaire not dispensing fabric softner. Hopefully this will help you out...

Remove the drawer by pushing the tab at the top of the drawer and pull it out and check for an obstruction. They regualarly plug up with gummy fabric softenener. Try washing out with hot water and reinstall

on your h-3 the soap disp tray will allow you the add powder ,liquid, bleach, or fabric softner at the time you put soap in disp then the water valve will dispence at proper times in the wash cyc you don't have to stop the wash cyc

Try removing the dispenser cup - and washing the inner cup thoroughly- run a sanitary cycle with whites and chlorine bleach mold and mildew likes to haunt these front loaders - be sure to run a bleach hot water cycle once weekly

I've had this same problem and solved it by removing the detergent/bleach/softener dispenser drawer from the machine and seriously cleaning out all of the "gunk" from the drawer and from inside the drawer area on washer. Sometimes I have had to repeat the cleaning and then the fabric softener begins dispensing again. I have model # 417.43042200 but it may work on all the Kenmore front loading washers.

under the bottom panel of the washer on the left hand side is a tech sheet that will tell you how to fix this

hi there remove the soap drawer then remove the cover over the softener compartment you will more than likely find a blockage in the cover siphon or the down tube on the drawer
