I have a Profile dishwasher with a built in gel detergent reservoir. I have used two different brands of detergent and believe te dispenser is now plugged up. How do I clean the dispenser?
There are two different types of dishwasher detergent types, bleach based and enzyme based. The owner's manual states that if the two are ever mixed that the mixture will congeal, clogging the dispenser.
I don't know exactly how to safely remove the detergent that is in there, perhaps a wet/dry vaccuum. There is likely a service mode for the dishwasher if it has electronic buttons, in the service mode you could activate the pump that dispenses the detergent. Use caution, the thicker the clog, the harder the pump has to work and it may fail. Hope this helps.

my dishwasher does the same thing
I don't think detergent is dispensing from the reservoir in my Profile dishwasher. It hasn't needed re-filled in more than a month, and it just doesn't "smell" like detergent when in use like it used to.
