Soap Dispenser Won't Open. Replaced It And The Control Board, Still Doesn't Ope

soap dispenser on my kuds35fxss3 wouldn't open. Took panel off and found that solenoid got overheated and moisture barrier melted on the solenoid. Was told that a bad control board caused this. So replaced both dispenser and control board, but dispenser door still does not open. Could wires between board and dispenser be faulty? They look fine. Can I test with multi-meter?
