Will the softener dispenser 8575076a work on this machine, it didn't come with one when we bought it new.
For model number TAWB600PQ1
Hi Brad, Thank you for the question. Since the appliance does not come with a dispenser I have no way to know if this one will fit. In Most cases the appliances that do not come with a dispenser have a agitator that sits to high and close to the lid to have a dispenser. Hope this helps!

Part ps1488027 - my fabric softener dispenser is clogged with softener. I want to clean it. The two-part dispense is easily removed, however, how do i remove the top cap from the dispenser so cleaner out the softener? Same for agitator it fits into - any way to remove agitator to clean the softener build up in the top cup?
Hi Jacki, Thank you for the question. The dispenser does not come apart sorry. The best way to clean it would be to let it soak in hot water with vinegar. In order to remove the agitator, you will need to remove the dispenser and under the dispenser you will see a agitator cap and seal that pulls out and a bolt. Remove the bolt and the agitator will up and off its post. Hope this helps!

I ordered the dispenser for softener but I have no instructions for installing it. Help!
For model number NTW4516FW3
Hi Joy,
Thank you for your question. It should just twist or pull off, if it seems stuck, you can use a flat blade screw driver to pry it off. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

Looking for the fabric dispenser, did not come with the machine when I bought it used.
For model number ETW4400WQ1
Hi Liana,
Thank you for your question. There is no fabric softener dispenser listed under your model number and to verify if there is one compatible with your model, you will need to contact Whirlpool. Their telephone number is 1-866-698-2538. If they provide you with a part number for the part, you may call us back with it and we can verify if we have it available for you. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

need to have a fabric softner dispenser
the first order was ordered wrong for me and the part was to big so I had to send it back and order another. The second dispenser was the right one and went on well to the machine. Just had to put it on the machine by hand.

Fabric Softener Dispenser clogged
Pushed the new one into place. No tools, no fuss and very little swearing involved. Clogg was caused by erroneously pouring the liquid detergent into the very handy opening reserved for fabric softener. I'd love to say my wife did that, but.... no, it was me. NOW, the real story. I ordered the part via the web at 10:00 a.m. It was delivered to me at 9:30 a.m. the next morning via Fed Ex. Wow! Great job at PartSelect.

The dispenser that I purchased 1 year ago broke (flaw in plastic part, I think)
My washer is an Amana He, but the part is made by Whirlpool, I think. I just set the new part on the middle agitator in the washer and pushed it firmly down and it snapped into place. It was amazingly EASY!!!!!!!

Agitator was not spinning
Pretty simple, I removed one of the screws that holds the agitator, pulled it up completely and put the new one in. Took me 5 minutes to do so.

Replacement for broken fabric softener dispenser
It was wonderful and so easy to install. A really nice, knowledgeable and helpful PartSelect employee helped me find the correct part. The part came within 3 days and and included installation instructions. I also watched the video on the PartSelect website demonstrating how to install the part. The video gave me confidence that I could do the installation myself. Installing the part was just as easy as the demonstration showed. This replacement went so well that I will use PartSelect again.

Works as expected!
Easy fix to add fabric softener dispensing functionality to Amana top-load washers that come with a plastic cover and no automatic dispenser. No more waiting to see when it is in the right cycle.

Great part, perfect fit.
I'm so happy that I have a fabric softener dispenser now. Even though I had to purchase one for the price of $20. I have always wondered why I didn't receive one when I purchased the machine. I feel like the fabric softener dispenser should have been part of my machine.
