The bleach dispenser drains into a tray on the tub ring that in turn drains immediately into the outer tub so bleach dilutes with water. The outlet port on the dispenser apparently is clogged. It can be snapped out of the top ... very carefully or one or more of the little tabs that anchor it typically will break off. Better to poke into the outlet with a wire or toothpick or cotton swab to clear the clog. |

just out of curiosity, this may be one of the odd dubbing temp versions....
meaning, if you select HOT, it will fill with that temp for 60 seconds, and then switch to WARM or COLD for the rest of the fill....I thought there was something wrong the first time I encountered this...and found out it will only restart this sequence after a full cycle... there are little tricks they throw in there..... as well as some machines offer a WARM rinse, but its not the deep fill that is WARM, its the final spray rinse that is WARM.... there are vids on replacing the 'dogs' inside the agitator, one of those will show you complete removal, tear down, and replacing all the parts inside....easier than you think...there are changes to some, but the general internals are all the same.. |

Parts diagrams show that it should have an electronic temp control board. Probably is plugged into a socket in the console if it does. P/N 3407125 which is NLA but can be found on eBay. They do go bad but it may or may not be the problem.
