Before Anyone Touches the Dishwasher
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
Before inspecting or working on a dishwasher, unplug it or switch off its circuit breaker. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher

Dishwasher Notes for Brentwood, TN
Brentwood Water Services (City of Brentwood), buying treated Cumberland River water from Metro Water Services and Harpeth Valley Utilities District, which supplies Brentwood, reports hardness of about 98 ppm on average (range 80-128 ppm), moderately hard. Hard water leaves spots and film on glasses and builds up on dishwasher spray arms and inlet screens, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair.
