If all's OK, remove the top panel and check the fill hose from the dispenser to the tub, make sure it's not clogged with the same debris. Occasionally, an article can get between the tubs and get caught on the end of the fill hose, you may need to carefully remove the hose from the tub and check for an article.

Does anyone know how to replace the dispenser hose to the tub? I have a slice in my hose, and am worried about inserting a new hose into the tub.....

There's nothing to be worrysome about installing the new hose, or removing the original. It'll be easier if you disconnect the end of the hose from the dispenser. Then grasp the hose as close to the tub as possible, and pinch it together and pull up and out on the hose. You need to make sure you get the whole assembly removed from the tub opening, and don't tear or loose the retainer end of the hose inside the tub. A dab of liquid detergent on the rubber flange will hwlp to make it easier to install the hose, but just reverse the process, pinch the hose and insert the flange and work it until it seats and seals, then attach the end of the hose to the dispenser, try to keep any kinks or twists from developping in the hose. Good Luck.

I was wondering how much of a tilt would cause this problem. The back right hand corner is about 1 inch higher than the front left corner where the detergent dispenser is. I haven't found anything blocking yet.

Dlrepp, Under certain installations (basements garages etc.) that can happen. As long as the washer cabinet is level, in both directions you're OK. If the washer is higher in the back, it could cause water to flow improperly and flow out the front of the dispenser, or accumulate and cause a problem. Remember to remove the dispenser drawer, and check for any debris that may have accumulated under the drawer, and may be blocking the tub inlet hose.
