James G Waxhaw , NC January 12, 2015 Appliance: Whirlpool Undercounter Dishwasher DU909PWKQ0 Latch would not open consistently on detergent dispenser Appeared to be two problems: the latch was worn and one of the pins that slid in a guide on the actuator located in the inner panel had broke off. Detergent lid spring and pin appeared to be OK but decided to replace since I was aready working on it. I ordered all the inner panel mechanism from the control arm to the latch actuator on the inner panel. The repair was successful as the detergent dispenser now opens during its cycle.

Robert P Williamston , NC May 06, 2015 Broken detergent cup spring the detergent door would not automatically open Simple fix. The interior of the dishwasher door has to be removed (8 screws). Once removed, flip the interior cover over and remove the plastic cover which protects the detergent assembly. You will see the two tabs where the spring attaches... and probably portions of the broken spring. Install the new spring and the protective cover. Pay attention before reassembly that the exterior door thas not popped out of it's tab. If so, pop the tab in place. Reinstall interior door cover and you are finished.
