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.

Over time, the dispenser assembly can suffer from wear and tear, clogs, or damage to its components. Such issues can impede the proper dispensing of cleaning agents, negatively affecting the dishwasher's cleaning efficacy.

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

Rob, It's not that difficult a repair, and you should be able to perform the repair if you have the "basic" skills and tools needed. Just remember to remove power to the dishwasher( breaker box) first, remove all the "torx" screws holding the inner door panel to the outer door assembly and separate the panels, disconnect the wires from the dispenser solenoid and remove the six(6) screws holding the dispenser and bracket to the door liner. Carefully push the dispenser out the door opening and into the tub. Reverse the procedure, and test the dishwasher and detergent cup operation.
