    Default Jenn-air dishwasher not drying dishes

    We recently purchased a new home. The appliances are about 2 1/2 years old. The dishwasher is Jenn-air model #JDB1100AWS, which does not dry the dishes completely. After each running we have to dry the glasses on the top rack. If we run the dishwasher at night and empty in the morning the amount of drying is less because some of the water drys on it's own. Any suggestions?

    There is also an odor that comes from the dishwasher. It smells like garbage. We always rinse the dishes prior to placing them in the dishwasher and it gets used 1-2 times per day. What can we do to eliminate the odor?

    I would try to use Jet-Dry in your rinse aid dispenser to see if that helps.

    For the smell issue, here is a link to a good couple of products you can order:
