I have a Kenmore Elite dishwasher. The detergent fill dispenser no longer opens during the wash cycle, so dishes are not getting cleaned well. What should I do?
-   My dishwasher is a Maytag jetclean series 01, model # VU304, serial # 218223 . The dish degertent dispenser won't flip open. I am not sure when it is supposed to do so during the wash, so I go ahead and flip it open manually during the final wash (when I remember to do so).
Hope this is an easy fix@ Thanks loads-   rorjo

The dispenser is usually controlled by an actuator of some type. This can consist of a small electric wax motor, switch or mechanical assembly. Some dispensers come equipped with an actuator as one complete assembly, while others have separate components that can be purchased separately. I would need your complete model number (located somewhere along to door opening) to be sure what type you have. I can locate a part number for you and give you some guidance on how to make the repairs yourself, if you wish to pursue this on your own and avoid the cost of a repairman. Post back with comments and let me know. I hope this helps you.

10 year old GE Profile built in dish washer runs but the center sprayer is not turning or moving. Is there a belt or a chain that needs to be replaced? Can I get to the motor through the front lower panel with out pulling the whole unit out? Thanks for your time!

Bosch exxcel auto option dishwasher 6 years old. Finished the wash programe and then did not turn itself off. Have tried to use it since, seems to wash but not as before and there was an awful smell which was like melting plastic. Any ideas?
