I have a dishwasher that does not open automatically when finished. I can detect when it is finished through a power adapter, but need to open it somehow. Any tips? Is fingerbot strong enough?

    I was just here to see if anyone has a simple (not battery) idea of how to detect if the dishwasher is open/closed. But I’m happy to read all the other comments.

    My recommendation is to read the manual, our dishwasher has this function. But I needed to enable it, and it doesn’t by default work in all modes. Maybe it’s good to check?

      Is the end goal to know if your dishwasher has finished? If so, a smart plug with power monitoring could tell you that.
