I'm troubleshooting my dishwasher. I have water leaking from the sides. My detergent cup sometimes sticks. It helped quite to clean out the caked detergent around the cup and assembly. It doesn't stick as much, but when it does open, the detergent is often solidified inside.

The cup spring seems ok, it opens fine when I pull back the detergent cup latch myself.

I tried replacing the door gasket, but that didn't help the leaking.

I also played with the tightness of the door with the door latch, but that didn't do anything either (actually, making it too tight seemed to make the leak worse.)

I often have to clean out my spray arms...often calcium deposits and lots of other pieces clogging the arms. I did that first, but that didn't fix the leak.

Any ideas? Thanks!

I've read the article posted online, but it does not tell me how to test the continuity for the touchpad on the front of the dishwasher, nor the continuity for the control board on the inside of the dishwasher?
