RE: Dishwasher Not Releasing Soap
Fill your soap dispenser with either powdered Tang or powdered lemonade and run empty of dishes. I did this twice and it cleared up the problem. The ascorbic acid cleaned up the problem.

I've had problems with those doors before, so I now just pour the detergent in the cup and then let it fall to the floor of the dishwasher as I close it. I've never had a problem with unwashed dishes or my dishwasher. But that's just me. I would have suggested those detergent bullets, too.

I never put the electrasol tabs in the dispenser, I just throw them in the bottom of my dishwasher and the dishes always come out clean.

Yep, the electrosol tabs work, but you still have to stuff them into the door and shut it (don't use the Cascade ones, your dishwasher is already old and the plasticy things don't dissolve well). Best thing to do is replace the dishwasher, ultimately your old dishwasher is probably costing a lot of money to run, they aren't water or energy efficient AT ALL! But if you can't do that, you might want to do a load with vinegar (cup at the bottom in a bowl) to dislodge some buildup.
