Bleach and starting a wash load in my LG-made Kenmore FL: is my drain pump sucking it away? |

 Bleach (and softener) should not dispense immediately. Both should be held in the respective dispenser compartments until incoming water flows through to flush the contents. Bleach typically dispenses during the last few mins of the wash period, or into the first rinse. Premature dispensing can be caused by 1) overfilling (frontloader bleach dispensers typically hold only 1/3 to 1/2 cup of liquid), 2) jostling the dispenser drawer when closing it (which triggers siphoning), 3) residual water in the compartment (dump it out before pouring in the bleach). | ||

As mentioned above....I think you might be overfilling your bleach dispenser causing it to siphon out as soon as you close it. How much bleach are you pouring into your dispenser? | ||
