The dishes coming out dirty on my Whirlpool Gold Quiet Partner IV. Cycle seems to complete. The soap is being used. Not sure how old it is ... it came with a house I just bought. Any suggestions?

I'd look at the "spray holes" on the sprayer to ensure no clogs.
Next, ensure tube at the back (if I'm thinking of the correct model) of the top shelf meets with the spout sticking out of the baqck wall of the washer.

make sure if its hooked to a garbage disposal the knock out was taken out

Our whirlpool gold quiet partner iii dishwasher is not working well . It is not gettting dishes cleaned soap left on dishes on top primarily

check the choper assembly

Fill the detergent cup with fabric softener for a full cycle. Don't be alarmed if bubbles seep out.

Finish off with a white vinegar wipedown of the insides if it still feels soapy.

found a kink in the drain hose, shortened hose-problem solved.

Hello
The heat dry button must be lit up or you are using air dry instead!

This happened to me as well. I think I solved the problem. It started when I first lowered the top rack. In doing so, the door doesn't open all the way. It also won't open all the way if your cutlery rack is in the front and you've put large utensils like a spatula. Consequently, detergent dried under the latch and it wouldn't firmly catch. For months I put up with it never emptying completely. The other day I took a tooth brush and very hot water and cleaned under the latch. After, I could feel a difference in the way the latch operated (with greater pop on opening). So far its been doing fine. Hope this helps.

You probably need to clean the filter; here is a site to show you how to do it: http://01tutorials.com/video/1686251/how-to-clean-the-filter-on-a-whirlpool-gold-quiet-partner-iv-dishwasher/4107

Ok this can mean 2 things.
Pump or filter is clogged
or heater is not working correctly. Can you give the precise model number?
