Why is my Saba LVS14C42MI16PLIX not drying properly?

  Jill Williams MDAug 17, 2025
  If your Saba Dishwasher isn't drying dishes well, make sure you're loading it correctly. Also, increase the amount of rinse-aid or refill the rinse-aid dispenser. Avoid emptying the dishwasher immediately after washing; instead, slightly open the door to let steam escape and wait until the dishes are barely warm before unloading, starting with the lower basket first. Finally, ensure you've selected a program with a sufficiently long washing time.

How to fix a Saba Dishwasher that doesn't start?

  Anthony FlynnAug 22, 2025
  If your Saba Dishwasher doesn't start, several factors could be at play. First, check the fuse or circuit breaker and replace or reset it, avoiding having other appliances on the same circuit. Ensure the dishwasher is powered on, the door is securely closed, and the power cord is correctly plugged in. Low water pressure could also be the culprit, so verify the water supply connection and ensure the water is turned on. Finally, be certain the dishwasher door is properly closed and latched.

What to do if there are suds in my Saba LVS14C42MI16PLIX?
- T
  Tanya WalkerAug 26, 2025
  If your Saba Dishwasher has suds in the tub, it's likely due to using the wrong detergent or a rinse-aid spill. To resolve this, only use special dishwasher detergent. If suds appear, open the dishwasher to let them evaporate, then add a gallon of cold water. Close and latch the dishwasher, select any cycle to drain the water, and check if the suds are gone. Repeat if needed. Also, immediately wipe up any rinse-aid spills.

  If your Saba Dishwasher isn't washing dishes properly, several issues could be the cause. Ensure the dishes are loaded correctly, and select a more intensive wash program. Use enough detergent, or consider changing your detergent. Make sure items aren't blocking the spray arms, and verify that the filter combination is clean and correctly fitted. Also, clean the spray arm jets.
