Dishwasher doesn t dry

A simple solution would be to not select Heat Dry if you have that option on your machine. When the washing cycle is complete, open the door partially (4 to 6 inches) to allow the hot water vapors to escape.
Evaporation will dry the dishes in the lower section and the warm dishes can be returned to your cabinet.
Glasses, etc., from the upper section can be removed and stored.
In the remaining space on the upper level. Cups that may have some water remaining in the depressions at the bottom of the cup are turned horizontally in the basket so the water from the depressions can drain. Some minimal wiping may be necessary prior to storage.
Not only have we solved the drying problem we have added some humidity to the air; do not have to worry about a non-functional switch and reduced our electric bill as well.
As a side note, once all of the above has been completed we never close the door completely but leave it an inch or two from a complete close; this will not compress the door gaskets and will add to their service life.
Hope this helps!

Have bosch she45 that stays wet inside after cycle completes. some of the dishes are wet also, how do I stop this

First of all, Bosch is my Favorite! Secondly, maybe your heated dry button is not on. Are you keeping the door closed until the dishes have had a chance to completely dry? This unit has a system that drys with the walls of the d/w as long as the door remains closed. I hope this helps you. :>)!

Bosch dishwasher she45m

Just bought a Bosch dishwasher and we were told that they have no heating mechanism to dry the dishes, which is why they are more energy efficient.  You are supposed to leave the door closed for at least one hour after the cycle is complete.  The heat that has built up inside during the wash cycle will dry the dishes.  It is also recommended to always use JetDry. If you follow this advice, the dishes will come out fine.
