Troubleshooting first? Start with dishwasher not cleaning dishes or dishwasher not filling with water.
If Your Dishwasher Is Leaking
A leak from the water supply line tends to show up as dampness under the front of the unit; leaks at the door often trace back to a dirty, loose or damaged gasket, a bent or loose latch, or a unit that is not level. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher
A dishwasher must be grounded; if the home wiring lacks a ground or the plug does not fit the outlet, a licensed electrician should correct it rather than modifying the plug. Source: Whirlpool - Dishwasher User Instructions
When a dishwasher drains into a garbage disposer, the disposer's drain plug must be knocked out first; if it is left in, the dishwasher will not drain. Source: GE Appliances - Built-In Dishwasher Installation Instructions
