Troubleshooting first? Start with dishwasher smells bad or dishwasher not cleaning dishes.
Leaks and Safe Shutoff
Shut off the dishwasher's water supply during repairs or whenever it is leaking; the valve is usually under the kitchen sink on the branch line that runs to the dishwasher, and it closes by turning clockwise. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher Water Shut-Off Location
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
To keep dirty water from siphoning back into the dishwasher, the drain hose is run in a high loop (at least 32 inches high in GE's instructions) or through an air gap; an air gap is called for when local code requires it or when the drain connection sits less than 18 inches above the floor.
