Maytag Dishwasher not dissolving soap

Soap is not dissolving. Door is open, but soap is barely touched. Sounds like water is spraying during its cycle and sprayer arm seams clean. I put soap in the prewash side and it still was not dissolved.

I opened the door during the cycle and there wasn’t alot of water in the bottom. I added water and it seemed to run fine and soap was dissolved. Is it just the valve or is there something controling the valve?

Most likely the problem is a bad (clogged) water inlet valve.

Valve should be here today. Also replacing the old soft copper line going to the dishwasher since there is no shut off valve near by and not sure exactly where its coming from. Running new braided line from under the sink which might help with water pressure too.

Found the screen to be clogged on the inlet valve. Cleaned screen and put it back together with new water line. Working like new now, returning new valve. thanks for your help

You are welcome. I’m glad you were able to fix it.
