My son has poured half a bottle of washing up liquid into the dishwasher, now it just fills with soap when I run it. How can I get rid of the excess soap?

If you are able to scoop any of the excess dish soap out I would do so. Otherwise, vinegar will neutralize the soap.Basically take away the bubbles out of the soap. You also can use vinegar in the rinse aid dispenser. I put it in there full strength. Much cheaper than other name brand rinse aids. Start your dishwasher to fill with water. Then pour white vinegar around the bottom of your dishwasher. Hope this helps.
Pour 1/2 gallon of white vinegar in the dishwasher and start it running. Check it after a couple of minutes and if there are suds pour more vinegar in. Vinegar works great for oversudsing in a washing machine too. To show how well it works put a tiny bit of bleach on your fingers and rinse as well as you can.
