We have a Kenmore 90 Plus top loading washer that's about 6 years old. It's
mechanically sound and has never required a service call.

Both the bleach and fabric softener dispensers are holding water in the
reservoir where you pour the product in.

We occasionally use bleach, but we have never really used the fabric softener
dispenser.

Possible causes, remedies?

TIA

Hi,

Model#?

Kenmore 90 Plus isn't it!

Some model# helps.

Both the bleach and fabric softener dispensers are holding water in
the
reservoir where you pour the product in.
Possible causes, remedies?

Clogged hose(s), bad solenoids, bad fill valve are -some- possible
trouble makers.

Model shows 2 fill valves...one for the incomming water and a second
for directing the dispensor water. Shows several miles ( slight
exaggeration ) of hoses that may need to be flushed out to help the
filling water run into the washer.
You should be able to see some breakdows from below...

I'd try a cleaning out first to see what happens

Hey, thanks, Jeff! Yes, there seems to be "miles" of hose! The diagram is
very helpful.

There doesn't seem to be any problem with the water coming in, but there's
always some left after the cycle. Maybe a good cleaning will do it. I have
a steam generator type cleaner. Could that be helpful in the process?

Also, can you tell me if this type of cabinet top is one held in the front
just by clips, or is it screwd down tight?

Thanks, again!
