hi,
The chalky residue would have formed due to the washing liquid or powder used. According to my experience, I am happy with "Amway -Dishwasher liquid".Please try it for washing your dishes. It leaves no residues and even cleans your dishwasher. On continuous usage, you may find the difference. Overall, it cleans your dishes as well as washer simultaneously. Though its a bit expensive, it is worth buying it.
please search in "ebay" for your country to get the product. Please rate my solution as helpful. Regards, Venu.

Sounds like a case of hard water and mineral deposits, try Jetdry, or even CLR from home depot and see if it will clean them off.

You could also get a water softener, that will stop all mineral deposits in your home.

most likely it is your detergent. palmolive eco is notorious for leaving a white chalky residue on dishes. try this out before calling a service tech: put unclean glasses in the dishwasher and in your soap dish and rinse cycle cup put 1/2 cup of distilled white vinegar. if it cleans (or improves) your dishes, then your detergent is the culprit.
