Why does the soap lid not open when washing dishes in the dishwasher?

I have a newer dishwasher and never have had problems with it until now. Everytime I want to put away my dishes my dishwasher still has soap in it. What is the problem? I wonder if the dishwasher is not opening during soap time or something.Why does the soap lid not open when washing dishes in the dishwasher?
If the door is not opening at all maybe somethings blocking it. If you have the kind with a turn dial for the settings try closing the detergent door and with the main door open turn the dial and see if it pops open. Otherwise you could try a different kind of detergent maybe a gelpac.Also is the water hot enough? Does it have it's own hot water booster?Why does the soap lid not open when washing dishes in the dishwasher?
That has happened to me a few times. When the door opens the soap has to drop in the bottom of the washer. But, what sometimes happens is theres a pot or something else that it drops on to and it doesn't fall to the bottom and it can't dissolve right. Just make sure no big thing like a pot is right underneath the dispenser.
You might need to cut back on the ammount of soap you are using. Is the soap cup open and empty when you open the door?
