    When I place conditioner in the detergent dispenser tray on my Bosch wfl2260 it is not used during the wash cycle. I have removed the tray and cleaned it and the area behind it. What else should I look at? Where else might there be a blockage or problem?

    Remove the drawer then clean the four holes in the dispenser cavity above the drawer. (They usually get blocked with a bacteria build-up!)

    Also low water pressure will cause this aswell.

    I sell alot of that model of Bosch, and I’ve had this complained alot!

    The problem seems to be the thickness of modern conditioner. By the time the machine wants to use the conditioner, it has set into a mass of jelly and the water just runs straight off it, or picks the conditioner up in a solid lump and runs undernealth it.

    The solution? Just dilute the conditioner with a small amount of water. This always solves the problem for my customers. 😉

    Edit – Always shake the bottle first as well!

    Bosch use a double cold valve that may be one half duff or the dispenser top section may need replacing if blocked internaly. Neither are an expensive job but it is one for an engineer.

    Poke a cable tie into the four holes in the middle of the dispenser.Then run through rinse cycle a few times.

    Thanks for all the responses. It turns out that poking a wire up the four holes above the dispenser was what was required.
