My old dishwasher was malfunctioning and I bypassed the door switch to see what was going on inside. That was a big mistake, water in my face and on the ceiling lol.
Specifically in your face because one of the nozzles on the middle spray arm is aimed outwards to hit the latch on the detergent dispenser door.
I think the door is timed, not depending on a jet of water to manually open it...
Negative. Being struck with water pressure is what opens the detergent door. That's why it's sprung like a mousetrap and so easy to jostle open accidentally. You can take the door and dispenser apart if you like and you will find no electronics in there. Also, if you look carefully at the middle/upper wash arm you'll see that it has one nozzle I was talking about on the tip that points outwards, not up. That's the one that makes the stream designed to hit and open the detergent door.
Of course, the dishwasher's program determines when to blast it at full pressure to pop it open. So it is "timed" in that sense.
