Replacing Dishwasher Water Supply Line

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Return to the dishwasher's water inlet. Attach the new 90-degree elbow fitting (which may come with the new hose or be a separate purchase) to the threaded inlet on the dishwasher. Hand-tighten this connection as much as possible. Then, use the small channel locks to give it a few more turns, ensuring it is secure and leak-free. After connecting the elbow to the dishwasher, go back under the sink. Attach the other end of the new braided flex supply line to the water supply valve you previously disconnected. Hand-tighten it first, and then use the adjustable jaw wrench to tighten it firmly. Do not overtighten.

Goal: Securely connect the new dishwasher supply line to both the dishwasher and the water supply valve.
