Hi! This is a wonderful question, I have looked at your model Fghd2433kf1 and see that the detergent dispenser doors are spring loaded just like most others. This means that the spring holding the door shut needs to be released by another component. The other component that will allow the dispenser door to open will either be the dishwasher's timer, a bi-metal switch, or a wax motor. As well as controlling cycle times, the timer on many dishwashers also functions as an actuator for the spring-loaded dispenser door. At a certain specific time during the cycle, the timer will activate a lever that in turn opens the detergent cup. If that lever is broken or in some way defective, it could need to be replaced. Alternatively, the timer's motor itself could be the problem. If your timer is not functioning properly, then the dispenser door may not function properly either. If you do find that it could be the timer motor I would contact an authorized service provider to complete the repairs.
