Possible Causes

Blocked dispenser door, Weak water pressure from spray arms, Overloaded or incorrectly loaded upper rack, Failed dispenser door spring or latch

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Turn off power if removing inner door components.

  • 1. Check for obstructions: Ensure tall items in the lower or upper rack are not blocking the dispenser door from opening.
  • 2. Clean dispenser area: Wipe away any caked-on detergent around the dispenser cup and latch.
  • 3. Verify spray arm function: Make sure spray arms spin freely and jets are not clogged, as poor spray can leave detergent undissolved.
  • 4. Test dispenser door: Manually open and close the door to feel for proper spring tension. If weak or stuck, replace the Frigidaire dispenser assembly.

Proper loading and a functioning dispenser should eliminate undissolved detergent.
