    My Zanussi WJD 1457 does not take the conditioner (eg Comfort/Lenor) otherwise the machine is OK.
    Does anyone know what the test sequence is to start the water entry to the conditioner drawer ? (This is usually a function of the front panel switches).
    At what stage of the rinse cycle is it supposed to take the conditioner?

    clean the little holes directly above the softener compartment with a plastic bag tie or similar object.

    Thanks for the tip I’ll give it a go.
    I’d still like to find the switch sequence for testing the different functions.

    Conditioner is always taken in on the last rinse.

    Sorry for delay in replying.
    Thanks to smartin, I cleaned the holes (with a pipe cleaner) and everything seems to be OK again. Thanks for the tip.
    There is an “offline ” test where, by pressing various buttons in sequence, you can get the various functions to work. It’s a lot easier than, say, a full rinse cycle to get a particular sequence to run. I saw a repairman doing it when there was another fault but he wouldn’t tell me the method.

    Perhaps as well, its possible to mess up the control PCB’s configuration if you start pressing buttons that you really shouldn’t. 😉
