Detergent Dispenser Assembly
This is the complete unit housing the sliding detergent door and the rinse aid reservoir. On the 500 Series, the plastic tracks can warp or the internal latching solenoid fails, preventing the door from opening during the cycle. Replacing the entire assembly is the only way to ensure the door timing and seal integrity are restored to factory specifications.

Dispenser Wax Motor / Actuator
The wax motor is the electrical component responsible for physically pushing the latch to release the detergent door. If the dishwasher finishes a cycle and the detergent is still dry inside the closed door, the wax motor has likely lost its ability to expand and trigger the release. This part can sometimes be sourced separately from the full housing.

Rinse Aid Reservoir Cap
In many 'broken' dispenser reports, the user specifically means the rinse aid cap has cracked or the internal gasket has failed, causing the reservoir to leak immediately. Because this part is frequently handled by the user, it is the most common point of physical impact damage on the dispenser face.
