How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No internal electrical work is required for this issue.

  • Adjust rinse aid: Fill the Dacor rinse aid dispenser and set the dosage higher to improve sheeting and drying.
  • Use proper detergent: Use a high-quality dishwasher detergent formulated for your water hardness. Avoid overfilling the detergent cup.
  • Check water temperature: Ensure hot water at the sink reaches at least 120°F (49°C) before starting the cycle.
  • Run a cleaning cycle: Use a dishwasher cleaner or a cup of white vinegar on the top rack and run a hot cycle to remove mineral buildup.
