Bosch washing machine drawer water feed blocked

[Chris w]

I have a front-loading Bosch washing machine which will not flush through its conditioner drawer. This happened for the first time about 2 years ago and I cured it by stripping out the drawer and carrier assembly to remove a lot of black deposit.
This has happened again and I wonder if there is an easier way of sorting the problem.. Washing machine cleaners don’t move it because the blockage is between the drawer and the water supply.
Help please !

2 years is not long to build up

when I do it I take the top of the soap draw housing off and remove the ducts to give it a proper clean out

as a quick one, pushing 30a fuse wire up the holes to try and dig it out can be an option but never as good

Thanks Dave.

This time, I shall make sure the hoses and ducts are cleared as well as the drawer itself. Then the repair should last a fair bit longer.
Thanks again for your help.
