Possible Causes
No rinse aid, Faulty drying fan or heater, Blocked vent, Using eco program with low final temperature
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing the door or top panel.
- Use rinse aid: Ensure the Sharp rinse aid dispenser is filled and dosage is set correctly.
- Select appropriate program: Use a standard or intensive program with higher final rinse temperature instead of eco for better drying.
- Check vent and fan: Inspect the vent outlet for blockages and listen for the drying fan at the end of the cycle. If silent, the fan or its wiring may be faulty and require replacement.
- Open door after cycle: Slightly open the door at the end of the cycle to allow steam to escape and improve drying.
