Soap dispencer is not opening. - Frigidaire 24 in. FDB1050RE Built-in Dishwasher

make sure when you load it that nothing is stopping the soap door from opening all the way,, most common mistake is loading a cutting board or tray in the front of the lower rack

Evening to you
Allow the washer to start a cycle and have the dispenser drawer ajar and observe through which dispenser the water goes.
Does the first stream go through the pre-wash dispencer,secondly notice where the main stream goes and lastly where the softener would go. If this can help you in any way just put use the dispencers as fits the washing.
goodluck

make sure the dispencer is clean from any kind of build up,or simply change out the dispencer

A sock was in between the two tubs blocking the water going tnto the main tub. This caused the water to backup and overflow in the soap dispencer..and all over the floor I then put my hand in between the two tubs and pulled the sock out. Thanks to the expert group for giving me this solution.

My Bosch intergreted dishwasher is only 3 years old. For the past year, the dishwasher dispenser refuses to open on the second cycle. We have had the repair man here 3 times, and each time he says it's fixed,but it clearly is not. Does anyone know what to do about this??

remove the door panel and replace the wax motor on the dispencer

nothing to lock it fully closed......pull harder!
