dishes are still wet and kinda warm after the normal cycle finishes, feels like it's not drying at all

— asked by Alex

Quick answer: The Heated Dry option is turned off, or you're using rinse aid incorrectly.

Diagnosis

The Heated Dry option is turned off, or you're using rinse aid incorrectly.

How to Fix It

Ensure the Heated Dry

If That Didn't Work

You might be interrupting the dry cycle by opening the door too soon. Wait at least 20-30 minutes after the cycle ends for the condensation drying to complete. Also, check that the high-limit thermostat (a service part) hasn't failed, preventing the heater from engaging for drying.

Heads Up

Plastic items and certain dish shapes will never get bone-dry without a heated dry cycle. It's a physics limitation, not a machine fault.
