Dishwasher help!

[Minnie_me]

The detergent dispenser isn't opening during the cycle! THREE times in a row, I've opened the dishwasher, only to find the dang thing closed (which of course means that my dishes aren't really CLEAN!).

Any idea how to fix this?

LOL, I have the old fashioned dish washer lol. So I don't think I could help
