In some installations the dishwasher is run through the garbage disposal. If that is your case, proceed as follows:
  • Located near the top of the disposal chamber you will find a dishwasher inlet.
  • Using a screwdriver, take a hammer and knock out the plug.
  • Remove the knock out plug from inside the disposal unit.
