    I have got a Hoover Performa 1100 thats about 5 years old and after each cycle has finished, the fabric softener compartment will not empty even after extensive cleaning with a tootbrush.

    I wonder if anyone else has experienced a problem of this kind or may know a solution.
    Happy Christmas all

    Rob,

    First thing to do is take the drawer out, clean it thoroughly especially the syphon nozzle and test it under the tap to see it working! :tup:

    Then clean the dispenser cavity with a pan brush or similar, concentrating on the holes directly above the fabric conditioner compartment. You may also need to poke say a plastic cable tie into the holes to clear them thoroughly. 🙂

    Finally, check the cold water inlet filter at the back to see if that is clear. 😯

    If that fails to solve the problem, then the Inlet Solenoid Valve is faulty and needs replacing 😉

    I take on board your comments consumerboy and thanks for that, but even Hoover machines do not have a dispenser problem these days that doesn’t have a simple cure :tup:

    I refer again to my earlier post here, sort that out and you will get it up and running again…easy :lesson:

    Consumerboy, take a very wise tip, don’t buy a Servis either! 😉
