The Dispenser Assembly is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers. It is responsible for holding and releasing detergent and rinse aid during the wash cycle, ensuring dishes come out clean and spotless. This assembly is designed to fit seamlessly into the dishwasher's detergent compartment, coordinating with the dishwasher’s cycles for optimal performance.

Symptoms of a bad dispenser assembly include:

  • Detergent or rinse aid not dispensing properly
  • The dispenser door not opening or closing correctly
  • Residual detergent left in the dispenser after the wash cycle
  • Leaks from the dispenser area

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Answer

Hi Harry. You need to use the supplied diagnostic tech. sheet (in the toe kick) to put the unit into a self diagnostic mode to see if there are any fault codes? It will allow codes to pop up and tell you which circuit failure is connected in the wiring circuit. Not only will the board and the device might have issues, the wiring or connections may have the issue. So be care full as the terminals in the connectors have spread apart and not making contact or they are mis connected one wire over on the board. The tech. sheet will allow you to look closely at the wires affected. Also a common Issue will over look the fact that a loading procedure will stick something in the way of the dispenser door being blocked. Follow the wires from the board to the dispenser to make sure the wire is not open or mis routed and pinched creating a direct short instead of passing the voltage or neutral path to the device. Control board part # WPW10084141. Dispenser part # WPW10199696. Thank You.
