Dispenser Assembly
The dispenser assembly provides automatic
dispensing of detergent, bleach, and fabric softener
as long as the user fi lls the compartments prior to
starting the washer.
The products added to the dispenser are diluted
with water before they are dispensed into the wash
tub. This is accomplished by a water diverter that
sprays a controlled jet of water into the proper
compartment at the correct time. The water diverter
movement is provided by a motor driven cam
located on the dispenser tank. The diverter motor
and water valve are operated by the control board.
At the start of a cycle, after the wake-up routine
is completed, the dispenser always moves into
position before fi ll takes place.

Caution: When testing the dispenser motor, DO
NOT remove the wiring harness from the dispenser
motor unless replacing the motor assembly. The
motor assembly has a special locking connector
and the wiring harness will not stay reconnected if
removed and reinstalled on the same motor.
To remove the dispenser assembly:
Remove the top and control panels. (See Top and
Control Panels. )
Remove the gasket from the front panel. (See
Gasket.)
Remove the gasket inlet hose from the clip
attached to the dispenser.
Remove the inlet and the dispenser vent hoses
from the dispenser:
Note: The inlet and the dispenser vent hoses are
diffi cult to remove.
a. Squeeze each clamp and slide it back.
b. Carefully break each hose loose by inserting
a small fl at-blade screwdriver under the
hose to break the seal.
c. Remove the hoses.
Note: An inlet tube is placed between the inlet hose
and the dispenser tank. The inlet tube provides
proper water pressure to the dispenser and nozzle.
When removing the inlet hose, the inlet tube may
remain in the hose. Ensure the inlet tube is fully
inserted into the tank inlet upon reassembly.
