HELP! Dishwasher leaving gritty stuff on dishes

Yep! i think some of them claim you don't need rinse aid if you use tablets, but ours never works properly without it. With both, it works great.

when we got our FP, it actually said in the paperwork that it isn't suggested to use tablets in that model of dishwasher - not sure if it's all FP dishwashers, but it definitely said it for ours. i'm pretty sure there was just a blockage in our rinse aid dispenser - we had this problem maybe 5 months back, and nothing since then...
