If your foam soap dispenser isn't pumping, it's likely due to a clogged pump or an empty air chamber. First, try rinsing the pump with warm water to remove any soap gunk. If that doesn't work, check to see if there's enough soap in the container; if it's too low, the pump can't draw any soap. Also, make sure the air chamber that helps create foam isn't blocked. Regular maintenance and thorough cleaning should keep your dispenser functioning correctly.
