Softener dispenser isn’t draining. Open the lid after a cycle to find it still full of fluid. I’ll admit I have no clue whatsoever how it works; I also don’t know how they manufactured it because it doesn’t come apart. It’s the kind that sits on top of the agitator (top-loading washer), I think it works by centrifugal force, that it’s supposed to fling it out of the center chamber to an outer chamber during the spin cycle?

I tried cleaning it not long ago, it doesn’t come apart, so I don’t know if I just washed some Clinton-era crud into a small port I have no hope of cleaning. Oh well, remarkably for a washing machine of this age these parts are still available, so I think I’ll just spend ten bucks on it.

    Sorry to be extra dull but in 50+ years of existence I’ve never had one single reason to use fabric softener, and I suspect that the last 30,000 years worth of human generations didn’t either

    Why pollute the planet more for absolutely no reason?
