Dimhaven Kitchen Cabinets Final State Solution

This guide covers the kitchen cabinets puzzle in Dimhaven - The Lost Source.

The important part is not counting every drawer as a simple left-to-right row. The puzzle board shows a logic gate diagram with cabinet outputs labeled A through N. This page gives the successful final cabinet state so you can set the kitchen correctly and open the hidden passage.

Final answer at a glance

The short answer is:

Open: B, C, D, F, H, K, M, N
Closed: A, E, G, I, J, L
Then pull the kitchen switch.

The number-index version is only a helper:

Open: 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11, 13, 14
Closed: 1, 5, 7, 9, 10, 12

What the board is showing

The board is a real circuit / logic gate diagram. The top and middle of the diagram show how signals flow through the gates, but for a stuck player the useful part is the bottom row: the outputs labeled A–N.

This guide is not a full gate-by-gate proof. It is a final-state solution. I use the board to match each output letter to the correct cabinet, then set the cabinet state that opens the hidden passage.

Match the A–N outputs first

Before opening or closing cabinets, I match the kitchen to the board’s A–N labels.

This is where most mistakes happen. The board is not telling me to blindly count every visible drawer from left to right. It is showing which physical cabinet belongs to each output letter.

The helper index is:

A = 1
B = 2
C = 3
D = 4
E = 5
F = 6
G = 7
H = 8
I = 9
J = 10
K = 11
L = 12
M = 13
N = 14

I use the letters as the real answer. The numbers are only there to make the pattern easier to compare.

Set the final cabinet state

Once the A–N mapping is clear, I set the kitchen like this:

A closed
B open
C open
D open
E closed
F open
G closed
H open
I closed
J closed
K open
L closed
M open
N open

The open outputs are:

B, C, D, F, H, K, M, N

The closed outputs are:

A, E, G, I, J, L

After setting this pattern, I stop moving cabinets. Rechecking the mapping is safer than repeatedly toggling random doors.

Pull the kitchen switch

After the A–N final state is set, I use the nearby kitchen switch or handle.

The success sign is the hidden passage opening.

If the passage opens, the kitchen cabinets puzzle is complete.

Follow the hidden route

The opened passage leads into a hidden route below the kitchen.

The next strong confirmation is the wax recordings area.

At this point, I leave the kitchen board alone and keep moving forward.

Common mistakes

The mistakes I check first are:

• treating the kitchen as a simple left-to-right 1–14 drawer count;
• ignoring the circuit board’s A–N output labels;
• matching one physical cabinet to the wrong letter;
• opening A, E, G, I, J, or L by mistake;
• leaving B, C, D, F, H, K, M, or N closed;
• changing cabinets after the correct final state is already set;
• setting the cabinets correctly but forgetting the kitchen switch;
• trying to use a separate document, word, or power-converter clue on this kitchen puzzle.

If the answer does not work

I reset the check in this order:

1. Confirm this is the kitchen cabinets puzzle.
2. Look at the board and match the cabinet outputs A–N.
3. Open B, C, D, F, H, K, M, and N.
4. Keep A, E, G, I, J, and L closed.
5. Pull the kitchen switch or handle.
6. Check whether the hidden passage opens.

If it still fails, I take a fresh look at the A–N mapping. The usual problem is not the final open list. It is that one cabinet has been matched to the wrong output letter.

When to move on

I move on as soon as the hidden passage opens.

At that point, the kitchen cabinets puzzle is solved. I follow the new route down to the wax recordings and stop interacting with the cabinets.
