Fisher & Paykel DW24UNT4X2 Dishwasher Service
Wet dishes at the end of a cycle top the list of calls we get about tall-tub machines, and the DW24UNT4X2 gets its share. This Series 9 tall-tub machine relies on a heated rinse and the heat left in the load. Before we test anything, we ask what is wet. Damp plastic next to dry china and glass is normal, since plastic stores very little heat.
Damp dishes on every rack are another matter. Then we look at the heating element, the temperature sensor and the vent, and we confirm the machine is draining fully so water is not sitting in the base. We also check the door seal and the spray arms, since weak spray can leave the load dirty as well as wet. A written price comes first, and the repair is covered by our 30-day workmanship warranty.
No. Plastic stores far less heat than china or glass, so water stays on it after the final rinse. Condensation drying works this way and no repair changes it. Rinse aid helps a little.
When glass and china are damp too, the whole load is affected. That points to the heating circuit, the sensor or the vent, and it is worth diagnosing. We measure the rinse heat and look at the element.
Yes. If water sits in the base after the cycle, it adds humidity and dishes stay damp. We clear the filter and the pump, and check the drain hose for kinks behind the cabinet.
