see the causes and remedies:
Most dispenser problems are due to being gummed up with detergent,
fabric softner, bleach residue, and water deposits. First check the
dispenser drawer by pulling it out of the dispenser itself. To do this
push down on the tab in the back and remove. Check that all is
thoroughly clean. No holes blocked up. Now there are several types of
dispensers out there but most have holes in the top where it dispenses
hot or cold water to the appropriate area. These holes can become
plugged up. If you have really hard water I would say replace the
dispenser if it is gummed up bad. Otherwwise
remove the dispenser
and thoroughly clean it out. Before doing this check the solenoids that
allow water through the dispenser. The solenoids can be checked with an
ohmeter but if all is clean and the solenoid does not open to allow
flow replace the unit or solenoid. Connect your ohmeter and refer to the
tech sheet or service manual for the proper reading. You can also check
for voltage going to the solenoid. If you have voltage when each
solenoid should be working, example: When the machine should be
dispensing fabric softner, The solenoid that allows water to flow
through that area should have voltage. If it does
replace the solenoid or unit.see the diagram attached
