Question
By mistake, meat and dairy utensils were washed together in a dishwasher. Did they become forbidden?
Answer
After the fact, they are permitted.
Source
Yoreh De'ah 95:3–4. It may be said that the water in the dishwasher has the status of pouring from a first vessel that has flowed along the ground, regarding which the later authorities dispute its halachic status. It may also be said that the detergent spoils the taste of the foods before they can cause prohibition to the utensils.
