The Dispenser is an OEM part for Whirlpool dishwashers, integral to the appliance's operation by dispensing detergent and rinse aid during the wash cycle. This component ensures that the right amount of cleaning agent is released at the correct time, contributing significantly to the effectiveness of each wash.

Causes of dispenser failure include cracked internal components from repeated door openings, mineral buildup clogging dispenser parts, or electrical malfunctions preventing dispensing functions. 

Symptoms of a malfunctioning dispenser include:

  • Detergent not being released during the cycle
  • Rinse aid leakage or inconsistent dispensing
  • The dispenser door sticking or failing to open

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

Leo for Model Number ADB1100AWB2

Here's a conundrum: My original part (W10195411) dispenser broke and I'm looking to replace it. However, when I search for a replacement part (or ask my local parts distributor) I'm getting conflicting part numbers for the replacement. I see WPW10300737 - which looks exactly like the original part (including the rear electrical motor connector and the plastic flange/skirt that seals to the d/w door) I also see WPW10224430 the rear side of which looks exactly like the original part, but the sides do not. This is the part many shops are showing as the correct replacement part. Any definitive suggestions? They cost the same. Please advise. Thanks!

SW, It sounds likely that the dispenser was not installed properly and is not lined up properly. You will want to double check installation.

Phil, There is no way to test to see if the dispenser would need replaced but sounds likely that a seal is bad and dispenser would need replaced.
