    same problem- dishes all have residue on them- have to rinse them off by hand

  • Anonymous May 05, 2009

    When  I open the dishwasher ( Maytag Jet Clean Quite Plus II ) after it has run, I find the soap door open but the soap tab is only partially disolved, still in the dispenser. The dishes are not clean, but I know the water has run because I opened the dishwasher mid-cycle and found plenty of hot water spraying everywhere.

This could be due to 2 problems: not enough water or water is not being pumped hard enough through the system. The 'not enough water' is easy to check - open the door in the middle of a wash cycle. If you have enough water (about 1" or more) then that is probably ok. The 'not pumping hard enough' could be as simple as plugged up filters and holes in the spray arms. Remove the racks and disassemble the lower spray arm and the filter assembly all the way down past the screen. Clean the arm holes, throughly clean the screen, clean everything. Pull the top spray arm and throughly clean the spray holes there. Put it all together and run a cycle. You should see a pronounced increase in the sound of the water spraying around. This should fix your problem - it did for me.

I have the same dishwasher and have had the same problem. What I've personally observed, however, is that sometimes a long utensil in the silverware basket prevents the soap dispenser door from opening. Simply make sure the long items are not placed in the basket closest to the soap dispenser door.

Carol,
This is a simple repair. Remove the screws around the outer door edge and separate the door. The dispenser is clipped into position with several screws. Remove the screws and push the dispenser through the door.You can purchase the part from the link below.

Maytag Jetclean Dishwasher EQ Plus - Lights flashing

either the control board or the control panel needs replacement. Most likely the latter. There is a possibility that both parts failed also. Usually water gets inside the touchpad, corroding and shorting the touchpad. Good luck
