DIY replace or install dishwasher for beginners!

[@hannahfriedeman9263]

I'm a complete beginner, and it took me 3 hours, but with these instructions I was able to remove, inspect, fix wiring, and reinstall my dishwasher! Even with a slightly different setup on the bottom, all the directions were clear and super easy to follow. Thank you for this video!

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Boo ya! That's what these videos are here for! Great to hear! Thanks for watching and commenting and nice work on getting that done ✔️

[@kelleyjones5525]

My dishwasher has a plug 🔌 into the wall, now I'm confused about the wiring

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

So this can happen and instead of hardwiring it like I showed in the video, you just find a dishwasher with a plug and plug it in. :)

[@NA-pg4lf]

Wow I'm honestly impressed. No nonsense straight to the point informative and you're not trying to sell me on some product or endorsed by.

Thank you! 😃 appreciate the kind words. I try to get straight to the point and waste minimal amount of time for you!

I'm a senior citizen lady. It took me 2 days to install my whirlpool dishwasher following your video step by step. I repeated several steps until I did it right! Thank you 👍

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

That's right! Though, he could've cleaned the floor off camera? Installing a new DW without cleaning the floor = yuck.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

you're not wrong. hindsight 100% should have cleaned off camera. Because what happened was after everything was said and done, it was cleaned afterwards and the video was already up and published. haha ill remember this next time for an appliance install video.

[@jamesmonica4510]

Thank You. For someone with a moderate amount of DIY knowledge, but never having replaced a dishwasher before, your video was perfect. No overly wordy explanations or repeating the same asinine warnings about making sure you remember to trip the breaker or turn off the water supply or you could end up with a mess. Sigh… those videos drive me crazy. To the point, well spoken, clear video, no multiple reminders about common sense things like “ don’t forget to make sure you triple check that your screws are snugged up tight to prevent any problems in the future. “. And no novel length speeches like the one that I’m giving in this comment. Liked, subbed, and notifications on, just because I think if you post something, I might learn something and I didn’t have to devote an hour to something you could concisely explain to me in five minutes. So thank You! I’m a fan!

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Thanks for the comment! You're really the ideal target audience I make content for. DIY experience in a variety of things and feel confident to take on a project like this. Just need a little bit of a push of info to get it started. Thanks for liking, subscribing, and watching! I'm trying to get more content out in the future.

Saved $200 because of this, THANK YOU. Home Depot automatically billed us $200 to install, but we cancelled as well as sent back/refunded their automatically ordered installation kits for $45. How they get away w that is so sad....RE: installation, those wires are insanely STIFF, that was the hardest part :P

Loved the straightforward, easy-to-follow approach. Still trying to figure out why I have power but can't get the dishwasher to start and run. Certain I missed something along the process. Probably going to redo; but it will be much quicker the second time.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

So frustrating when the panel description doesn't match up with the actual breakers. Sometimes the panel is put on upside down. If all else fails, you can process of elimination and find out what breaker really is tied to the dishwasher. Be careful! Use the voltage tester

[@Dunadan44]

@@ColtonCrumpDIY No, we figured out the panel, found the right breaker, managed to not electrocute myself. But after I finished installing, turned the breaker back on, has power, lights up. Won't start. So, yeah, fiddling again. Seems to be balanced, but I'm double-checking everything again.

[@brendansmith2069]

Thanks for making this! I had difficulties in the execution itself (got a couple cuts from raw edges, had several hard-to-access fasteners) but the next step was never a question. Excellent video!

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Not every dishwasher is the same, but the concept is pretty universal. Bottom of dishwashers are no joke as the manufacturer keeps a lot of the metal down there pretty raw and feel no need to sand any corners or edges. Glad you got it figured out!!! I bet it looks great!

[@beckylawler2768]

Great video! Thank you! I hope this helps someone. I was thinking the hardest part of this for me would be laying the dishwasher on its back and then picking it back up again. But I figured out that I can put two chairs facing each other and lay the dishwasher back on those. I hope the weight distribution will allow for that. Doing it that way will also keep me from having to get down on the floor and pick myself back up. I'm 65 and have arthritis, so I don't like having to do that.

1 small tip before you reconnect the old water line. Flush it. Just turn the valve on slightly for a few seconds and put something under to catch the water. This just makes sure nothing nasty gets in the new washer line. If you’re using a new line no need! But great video!

[@michael95621]

Few things to add: Unplug the dishwasher if you can or check for power Check for leaks before you slide it back in Screw the feet down on the existing dishwasher before sliding it out - gives you a lot more room to work with. If you're replacing cords you can disconnect them and not be worried about damaging them while pulling out.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Thanks Michael!

[@michael95621]

@@ColtonCrumpDIY sure thing, thanks for the video. Reminded me of some of things I had forgotten since the last time I did one. I usually do a full cord replace so I unhook from the disposal, water valve, and outlet side, but I might not this time. You made it look easy though :D, last time I did one took me 2 hours to get it in because I forgot about those feet screwing up and down.

[@TheeRighteousOnee]

Should you turn off the power on the breaker or is that not necessary?

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

I would for sure recommend turning off the power at the breaker box, circuit box whatever you want to call it, before handling any of these wires.

[@lkstaack74]

Also, mention that 1) some building codes require an air gap between the DW and drain, and 2) some professional installers won't hard-wire the DW in, they must have a GFI plug available.

1:08 or you may have a switch on you kitchen wall to turn off power to the dishwasher. This was very helpful but i had other hurdles when I did mine yesterday. The water line was a corroded copper tube going to L joint on DW. I couldn't tell which to losen because of all the corrosion. So I undid from under sink instead. But then knob was not all the way off and I got water under sink. then after I hooked up DW to water under sink the knob joint started leaking so I had to tighten that , i may have to replace that. Then my drain hose clamp i had on old one was too big so now i have to go to store to get another clamp.

You are right. I did forget to mention to test with a multimeter, or something similar or as simple as a test light. Test it out and make sure the voltage has stopped from the wires. I usually do pretty well at mentioning this but I forgot to add it in this one. Thanks for the comment!

My dishwasher plugged into the wall. Should I check the breaker too? I bought a dishwasher and had them install it.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

If you have a dishwasher that was installed with a cord that plugs into an outlet and had a licensed professional install it, likely the outlet is protected and you should be fine to replace your dishwasher by unplugging it then ensuring your new dishwasher has a plug that also plugs into the same outlet

[@davidblaska4738]

An easier way: Very first thing to do is switch off circuit breaker. Then turn on dishwasher. If it doesn't light up, you have cut off the power.

You might of just saved my life! My wife just got a new dishwasher and I turned off the breaker labeled dishwasher. Turns out it was still getting electricity.

Thank you so much. Was having trouble trying to figure out how to do this "hard-wired" thing. This was perfectly right on. Good job explaining it. Thanks. 👍

I’m just installing an older, used Hobart D/W in my tiny house. After locating the wires, I’ve decided to install a plug-in cord to the dedicated 20 a receptacle behind the d/w. Also, since the used d/w didn’t come with any hoses, I’m putting in a new water supply hose and a new drain hose. The issues I have are matching sizes of the connection points. I believe that the fill hose is 3/8” with a 1/2” female connector. The drain hose will fit the existing clamp connection but the other end is larger than the sink trap tailpiece. So I’m trying to figure how to remedy that. I won’t have a garbage disposal, but will install and air gap under the sink.

[@ColtonCrumpDIY]

Have you checked your local home hardware store to see if they have an adapter? Or Amazon even. Just the make sure you get some clamps or pvc cleaner/glue. Did you also make sure your D/W is on a Gfci line? By code they need to be.
