When I put the softener in the bin on the right it just never releases. It will be there at the end of the cycle. What am I doing wrong? Yes it is an old washerMy softener drain in my washer will not release the softener on the rinse cycle. What can I do to clean this?
The holes in the dispenser are plugged with thickened or dried softener. It's very common with old or new machines, especially if they are used continuously for light or medium loads. You can clean and flush the dispenser and outlet holes to make it like new again.

Who makes Clean master pressure washer where can I find parts.?
They are sold by Ace Hardware.
You should be able to find parts there.

Dryer not working...it's one of those kind with the washer on the bottom and dryer on top.?
When I turn the knob, it just simply won't go....there is a sound like it wants to start and you can even hear the whine when you try and get it to dry. What could be wrong with it? Can it be fixed and for how much? We've had it for five years.Dryer not working...it's one of those kind with the washer on the bottom and dryer on top.?
It sounds like the start capacitor has gone bad. In single phase motors (like the one that spins a dryer drum) it uses a capacitor to start up. If the capacitor has gone bad the motor will ';whine'; and seem like it wants to go but it won't. Provided this is the problem it's easy and not too expensive to fix. Find a friend that's an electrician and have them get you a new start (or run) capacitor. This should cost around $50-100 to fix.Dryer not working...it's one of those kind with the washer on the bottom and dryer on top.?
I'm sure it can be fixed, you say it's 5 years old. It may cost $175-250 to repair. Would you want to put that much money in a 5 year old machine.
rule of thumb....washer or dryer older than 4 yrs will cost more to repaire than its worth..........

We have had a recent bout of cold weather and my washer is out in the garage. I just went to do laundry and ?
my pipes appear to be frozen. I don't even know where to start with this problem. Do I call a plumber? Is there anyway to thaw them fast and hope that my pipes don't burst. Any help would be appreciated.We have had a recent bout of cold weather and my washer is out in the garage. I just went to do laundry and ?
Your hoses are probably froze as is the water valve that can bust and cause a flood, also there is a pump inside the cabinet that you can't see, also the pressure switch pick up tube can freeze and break. A washing machine is not designed to be frozen. I would not try to use it until it is completely thawed. If possible, un hook it and take it in the house and it will thaw by tomorrow morning. If you suspect another freeze, take the drain hose and lower it to the floor and drain the water, then put it back in the drain and remove the fill hoses. A little rv antifreeze in the tub wouldn't hurt a thing, just rinse it once before you wash clothes. Hope this helps!We have had a recent bout of cold weather and my washer is out in the garage.

Open the water valve and try a hair dryer or a heat gun if you don't think it's been frozen too long. Also, any small space heater like a ceramic job will also work and you don't have to ';babysit'; it. In the future, buy a heat tape for the lines.
I wouldn't call a plumber unless the pipes burst.
Turn off the water supply to the garageDisconnectt the washer water supply.Try a hair dryer on the lines. Move the washer in to the house for a day and drain it. Sorry, but you are going to be buying a new washing machine if you leave it out there to freeze any further.
An electric hair drier works pretty good.bacteria

What does error code ';LR'; mean on the Maytag Front load washer machine?
I guess all those people answering load reduction don't have a maytag front load washer, because the actual answer is that the motor is not running properly (looked it up in my owner's manual). In the troubleshooting section it says you have to call and have it serviced. 1-800-688-9900What does error code ';LR'; mean on the Maytag Front load washer machine?

I'm so sorry you bought one of these machines. Can you get a maintenence plan for it still? Either that or look into replacing the thing. Once you need it repaired, it often needs several very expensive repairs.

Try unplugging the washer to reset the computer.

Do you wash the dishes before putting them in the dish washer or do you just put the dishes in?
wash emDo you wash the dishes before putting them in the dish washer or do you just put the dishes in?
I rinse off the dishes, especially ';chunks'; of food, because I typically run the dish washer once per day, in the evening...anything that might get dried on, like oatmeal, I will make sure there is no residue in there to get ';cooked'; on by the dishwasher.
If I have a big load, such as after a dinner party, I do not pre-rinse, as I have a food grinder built into the dish washer. I rinse only when I know the dishes will sit all day before being washed.Do you wash the dishes before putting them in the dish washer or do you just put the dishes in?
I just put them in. Sometimes they need to stay in a few cycles to get clean.
My dream house will have two dishwashers and no cabinets. That way I never have to put the dishes away and can just go back and forth between the two washers.
Thoroughly wash them...I need to have everything exceptionally clean.
No, I remove the food items, then put them into the dishwasher.
Why wash twice.
What dishwasher i have always done it by hand.This is the way we wash are dishes soap and strong hands remember snow white
Wash them by hand only
I always wash them or the food particles clog up the filter
i am the dishwasher ,, by hand
No, don't have a dish washer!
:-)
rinse them off then put them in.
it depends on how dirty they are
I rinse them off first, yes.
I rinse them.
I rinse them.
yea, I wash them with water
i give them a quick rinse.
have my cat lick them lol
no, I do rinse them first
