Is it clean water or dirty coffee water?
If clean then there is a leak on the boiler or one of the water lines.
If dirty coffee water, then remove the brew unit and clean the small chamber under the white plastic valve.

I push the water dispenser and no water comes out but comes out at the bottom?

The hose to the water dispenser up front cannot be connected and it is spilling the water onto the floor when the solenoid is activated.

HI
The first thing you need to do is increase the amount of coffee going into the brw unit. Turn the small knob up towards the plus+ but 1 mark from the full +. This will take up the air space the water is occuping and then see if you have a sloppy puck. If you still do your grind is to coarse and needs to be tiurned down but never lower than 6 and only when grinding. If you grind doesn't change ( remember it takes 3 cycles to change the grind in the brew unit) your grinder may be bad.

Why does a lot of detergent remain in the soap dispenser after a washing cycle is complete

Was the dispenser cup wet when you added detergent?
Make sure the dispenser cup is dry before adding powdered detergent. If dispenser cup is wet, the detergent can clump.
Is the cycle incomplete?
If the previous cycle did not complete, the detergent can become caked in the dispenser cup if it is left sitting in the dishwasher.
Is the detergent old?
Older detergent exposed to air will clump and not dissolve well, which will cause the dispenser door to stick to the detergent. Replace detergent if necessary and store the detergent in a tightly closed container in a cool dry place.
Is the water temperature too low?
For best washing and drying results, water should be 120oF (49o C) as it enters the dishwasher.
Were items blocking the dispenser that kept it from opening?
Items blocking the detergent dispenser will keep it from opening. Make sure water action can reach the dispenser.
Detergent guidelines
  • Use automatic dishwashing detergent only.
  • Other detergents can produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washing performance.
  • Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place.
  • Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.
  • Add detergents just before starting the cycle.
  • The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water and the type of detergent.
  • If you use too little, dishes won't be clean.
  • If you use too much in soft water, glassware will etch.
  • Suggested fill amounts are for standard powdered detergent. Amounts may vary if you use liquid or concentrated powdered detergent. Follow instructions on the package when using these detergents.
  • Water hardness can change over a period of time. Find out your water's hardness by asking your local water department, water softener company, or county extension agent.

What is the best detergent to use with this? I am using powdered detergent but half the time it never comes out of the dispenser cup, after the load is done it's still caked in there.

There is a possibility that the dispenser door seal leaks water into the detergent compartment during prewash and causing the caking to occur. Try cleaning the seal area and make sure the door is being held tightly to the inner main door panel. You might also try one of the 'cubed' detergents that is supposed to dissolve after falling into the washer cavity. My wife seems to prefer them in her Maytag unit. Hope this helps!

GE Side By Side Ice Machine & Water dispenser not getting water

you may have a pin hole in your water line to your dispenser or you could be leaking at the water valve itself on the water dispenser side. you'll have to pull the refrigerator out from the wall and look where the main water line goes into the back of the refrigerator. you will probably have to take the back off to see. be sure you put the back of the refrigerator back when you are through.

All water directed to Frother/ Water nozzle on Impressa C%

The Multivalve seems to be stuck. When you start up the machine you should hear the multivalve turning 2 times, if it`s silent, the valve is defective. This valve is important to guide the water in the right direction. Contact your servicedealer and let them have a look. There`s also a small chance that the electronic board are sending wrong or no signals to the valve

No dispensing of water from container.

Check the bottom of the tank, there should be a gasket on the valve at the bottom of the tank. Must be on the tank and not sitting in the hole. Make sure the tank is sitting firmly and not off set even a little. Loosen the cap for the flow indictor while running, then tight when fluid starts leaking out, stop when the spinner starts spinning. Other then that you may have a clogged line somewhere.
