Description

This replacement siphon cap fits the dishwasher detergent box to help the dispenser release detergent properly during the wash cycle. It restores the siphon seal so detergent moves from the dispenser into the tub when designed. What it does:

• Seals the detergent box outlet so the dispenser siphons detergent at the proper time
• Prevents premature leaking or residue buildup in the dispenser area
• Helps ensure detergent is delivered into the wash, reducing missed or partial dispenses
• Addresses symptoms like detergent left in the dispenser, visible leakage, or poor cleaning due to missed detergent release

What's included:

• One detergent box siphon cap

Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid electrical shock
• Remove the dishwasher door inner panel or dispenser assembly as required to access the detergent box
• The cap typically snaps or presses into place; replace carefully to avoid damaging surrounding plastic
