Hotpoint Washing Machine Detergent Drawer

The drawer and dispenser that carry detergent and softener into the machine with the incoming water.

Signs it has failed

• The drawer is cracked, jammed or will not slide in and out
• Detergent left in the drawer after the wash or overflowing
• Water leaking from the front of the drawer
• Mould or blocked siphons that cleaning does not clear

Check before you buy

• Remove and clean the drawer and the recess behind it
• Check the water flow into the compartments, as a weak inlet valve causes residue
• Check the siphon caps are in place and not cracked

What replacing it fixes: if the signs above match your washing machine and the checks point to this part, fitting a new one should clear those faults. If the symptoms continue, the cause is elsewhere (a control board, a sensor or a blocked vent or hose).

How to replace it

1. Pull the drawer out until it stops, then press the release catch and remove it
2. Clean the recess and check the spray nozzles
3. Slide in the new drawer or dispenser housing
4. Run a rinse cycle and check for leaks

Guide steps are typical for this type of part. Layouts differ between models, so follow your own manual where it differs.

Getting the right part

Drawers differ by compartment layout and handle. Match the part number or your model number and compare the listing photo with your drawer.
