After every wash, everytime I pull out the little top left drawer,I always find water filled to the brim of the Softener compartment. Does anyone know what I can do to get rid of this? I have to manually scoop out the water before the next wash. Help!
The softener drawer cover is designed to siphon out most of the water that runs into the drawer so, when the wash is over, the drawer should always be nearly empty. Unclip and take out the detergent drawer, unclip the softener cover and fill the softener tray with water. Clip the softener cover back on and the water should run out immediately. If it doesn't then a small blockage in any of the 3 pipes in the cover can completely stop the siphon action. Cleaning them out is generally all that's needed.

could be leaking inlet valve or if drain is plkumbed in unbder sink, could be filling thro drain pipe when you emptyt sink

you may have blockage in pipe from drawer to tub but more likely the soap drawer is clogged. take it right out and clean thoroughly

are the holes that spray out the water partially blocked? if so the water will spray out at every angle filling all the tray slots. try popping out the soap tray and cleaning above it with a stiff washing up brush and then reducing the water pressure by turning the tap off a bit.
