8581471713033 Genuine Long Detergent Drawer for Electrolux Group Front Load Washing Machines, Soap Dispenser Drawer

Cracked handle, broken divider or a drawer that won't slide back in? Part 8581471713033 is a genuine detergent drawer from the Electrolux group front loader range, listed as the long version. Drawers come in different depths and front styles depending on the machine, which is why the length matters here. No model list is on file, so compare the old drawer's length, front and part number before you order.

Detergent drawer problems on a front loader

The drawer holds powder or liquid detergent, softener and sometimes a prewash dose. During the fill, water sprays through it and flushes each compartment into the tub at the right point in the cycle. A damaged drawer stops that working properly. Common complaints are detergent left behind after the wash, water overflowing from the front of the drawer, a front panel that has snapped off, or a siphon cap or divider that has gone missing. Mould and hardened detergent can also block the channels, so clean the housing when the new drawer goes in.

Swapping the drawer

No tools are needed in most cases. Pull the drawer out to its stop, press the release tab, often found in the softener compartment, and lift it free. Clean the drawer housing with warm water and a brush while it's out. Slide the new drawer in on its runners until it clicks, then run a rinse to check water flushes cleanly and nothing spills from the front.
