Repair guidance / Kenwood / BR6
Detergent is left in the dispenser
Tell us whether the dispenser has opened and whether the tablet is dry, softened or partly dissolved. The result can depend on water movement, loading and programme progress. Avoid deciding that the dispenser must be replaced solely because detergent remains.
A different pattern: one rack cleans worse than the other
Explain which rack is affected and whether the issue started after a change in loading. Poor water distribution may have several causes. Keep the account focused on the visible result; do not run the machine with the door latch defeated to watch its spray system.
A repair in a flat or a room reached by stairs
Include the floor level, entry arrangements and any stairs between the entrance and the equipment. These are practical booking details, not a reason to move the appliance yourself or promise that a repair can be completed on arrival.
Identify this Kenwood model
Provide the complete model and serial number from a safely accessible rating label. Do not remove panels or move heavy equipment to find it.

Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “detergent is left in the dispenser”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “detergent is left in the dispenser”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “one rack cleans worse than the other”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Orpington postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “one rack cleans worse than the other” change the enquiry?
Treat that as additional evidence rather than proof that both symptoms have one cause. Explain whether the two patterns began together or appeared at different times. Include the fitting context — a repair in a flat or a room reached by stairs — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
