Bosch Dishwasher Not Drying
Dishwasher Not Drying is usually one of a small number of specific, repairable causes — here's what to check and when it's worth calling a professional.
Common Causes
A drain line constrained by slab construction
With no underfloor route the drain has to rise and fall where a conventional house would run flat, and marginal falls cause the incomplete-drain complaint.
A clogged filter or drain line
The single most common cause of drainage and cleaning-performance complaints.
A failed door latch or control fault
Many dishwashers won't start at all if the door sensor doesn't register a full, secure close.
Local conditions that matter here
In an Eichler a new water line cannot go under the floor, because there is no floor to go under — the slab carries the radiant heating loop, and cutting it turns a kitchen job into a heating job. Lines here run overhead or around the perimeter, which is why the same repair takes longer on one street than on the next.
