I am going to show you how to remove the access panels, disconnect the water lines, the drain lines, and the electrical. How to remove and replace the dishwasher. Here are some of the tools that we are going to be using.
This is 6-inch adjustable crescent, this is a 4-way screwdriver, these are wire strippers, these are alignment pliers, two flat tip screwdriver and a Phillips-head screwdriver. 9/16 Open-end Box Wrench, 5/8 Open-end Box Wrench. This is a Line Voltage Electrical Detector it beeps, makes a noise when it contacts an electrical circuit. This is a nut driver with the sockets, quarter inch socket set, this is a battery drill with your screwdriver attachment. This is just substandard stick ruler, six foot long.
Remember electric and water don't mix. Make sure electrical power is off and safe, in a safe position. Also remember that some of the tools that we are going to be using are sharp, and there is a possibility of getting cut.
