Hotpoint Acquarius 1000 has stopped taking in the powder through the drawer. Washes ok if using drum based detergents. It will take powder from the pre-wash drawer but not the main drawer.
Thanks in advance :?:
 
Hi Buffers.
I think you will find the programer supplies electric to two solinoid valves, which allows/pumps water through the dispenser drawer.
I would think the solinoid for the powder valve has gone and needs replacing.
Testing, removing and replacing these valves is easy, I think I paid £5 for a second hand valve about six years ago.
