dispenser didn't stay closed
Ordered new part and installed it. I found a repair manual online and the replacement was pretty easy. I removed 8 screws that held the outer door and the dispenser was sitting there looking at me. I disconnected the solenoid, pried apart two clips and the old dispenser came right out. Reversed the process to install the new one.

Needed to replace the whole dish soap dispenser
I switched off power to the dishwasher and unscrewed the front panel from the inside sides. Then, carefully removed the front by lifting up and off. I disconnected the signal wire by unclipping it from the detergent dispenser; it clipped in like a phone jack. Unscrewed the frame holding in the dispenser, then popped out the old dispenser, popped in the new one, screwed on the frame, hooked the signal back in. Replaced the front, screwed it in, turned on power and ran a small quick wash to make sure it was working properly. It was!

On the the lid of the dispenser a tiny tab that engages with a tiny bar that is supposed to hold the lid closed on the detergent until released by a solenoid at a certain time in the cycle. It allowed the lid to open prematurely.
I performed the repair exactly as shown in the online video site accessed by entering the url that came with the order. The video was correct in every aspect.
The tiny little tab on the new dispenser broke on the first use of the machine. Very weak part of the process. We will secure lid to the detergent by another means, which we had been doing for some time anyway. Can't afford another $75 plus shipping. Very weak design.

Replace the soap dispenser
It is VERY IMPORTANT that you watch the HOW TO VIDEO provided from the BEGINNING, then it will be VERY EASY to do. I took out ALL the screws, I DIDN'T need to do, so it took longer, & made things more difficult.

Detergent Dispenser would not stay closed
When we tried to get a repair person, we found most places were not even taking customers who didn't buy the appliance from them. Independent repair people reported month-long (or more) delays, so we decided to try it even though we are not exactly "handy" people. :-)
It was actually rather easy. We followed the video from the PartSelect website and it guided us all the way through the process. It was helpful to have 2 people working together, especially when removing/replacing the front cover.
It's been a couple of weeks and it's still working!

Where are the helpful videos --dispenser will not stay closed troubleshoot
For model number DU1300XTVQ0
Hi Ralph,
Thank you for your inquiry. There are no videos for this particular part at the moment. However, it sounds like you will have to replace your dispenser as it is either and internal electrical problem in your part or the part is physically broken. Either way, you will have to replace the part. Good luck with your repair.

Inside of the soap dispenser there is a rubber squared-like ring that prevents the detergent from leaking. It is missing. Do I need to replace the whole soap dispenser because of this small part?
For model number DU1055XTSS2
Hello Tony,
Thanks for your question. The seal is not available as a separate part and you would require a new detergent dispenser to obtain that part.
I hope this helps.

I have a Whirlpool that starts well and i hear the water running and such. However, it doesn't move past a certain point to actually open up the soap compartment and complete the cycle. I ended up cancelling the process and it drained completely. So i don't think it's a plumbing issue.
For model number DU1055XTVQ8
Hi Julia,
Thank you for your question. The problem will most likely be with either your detergent dispenser or your electronic control board. More than likely your dispenser if all of the other functions in your dishwasher are working perfectly fine. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

Replaced the soap/rinse aid dispenser the soap portion is working fine but the rinse aid only worked for a short period. Any suggestions as to what may be preventing the rinse aid portion from dispensing. Have tried all settings 1 through 6
For model number DU1055XTPS4
Hi Greg,
Thank you for your question. The detergent dispenser is designed to release detergent into the dishwasher tub during the wash cycles and will typically have two compartments, an unsealed compartment for prewash and a sealed compartment for the main wash cycle. Verify that the dispenser is not simply clogged with caked on detergent and give it a good cleaning if necessary. Also check to make sure that the cover for the dispenser will open easily and is not damaged or broken. Check the release mechanism for worn or defective parts and replace if necessary. The rinse aid dispenser is designed to release rinse aid into the tub during the rinse cycle. Verify that the dispenser is full and is not clogged with detergent and verify that the cap is adjusted properly. The dispensers may be operated by either a mechanical devise or by a bi-metal release or wax motor devise. Also, The rinse aid cap could be the reason why your dishwasher is not releasing rinse aid. The rinse aid dispensing cap is located on the inner door panel of your dishwasher. The rinse aid cap could be loose and may just need to be refitted, but could also be warped or damaged from the heat of the water in the dishwasher. Remove the cap from the door and inspect it for signs of melting or warping and replace if need be. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

The door of the detergent dispenser does not close. Is there some thing to try before changing the part? If not, is this fairly easy to change? Thank you.
