Replacing Dishwasher Water Supply Line

What happens here

With the kick plate removed, you can now access the dishwasher's water inlet, which likely has a 90-degree elbow fitting connected. The video shows this elbow fitting was installed in a difficult orientation. Place a towel underneath the connection to catch any water. Use the small channel locks to grip and loosen the elbow fitting. If water begins to leak, simply move faster to unscrew the fitting completely and remove it. Be prepared for some water to come out.

Goal: Disconnect the old elbow fitting from the dishwasher's water inlet.
