Detergent tablet remains in the dispenser at the end of the cycle

Safety first: Turn off power before manually testing the dispenser.

• Check loading: Ensure large plates or trays are not blocking the dispenser door from opening.
• Test dispenser door: Open and close the dispenser by hand to ensure it moves freely and the spring is functional.
• Clean area: Wipe away any detergent residue around the dispenser that may cause sticking.
• Spray arm alignment: Confirm that the upper spray arm rotates freely and is not obstructed, so water can reach the dispenser.
• Replace dispenser: If the latch or spring is broken, replace the detergent dispenser assembly.
