I had to buy a "Dishwasher Kit with Power Cord" for $29.99. Could not have installed it without the kit. Power cord was included as well as the necessary plumbing fittings. Installation was a breeze with all the right parts on hand.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This is normal and you have to buy it separately
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes this is normal. All you need is a drop cord or 110 appliance cord and wire it according to the installation instructions. I then ran the cord up to the receptical next to the stove and fired it up!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.no cord never see one with one
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No cord is included because it has to be hard wired into the bottom of the dishwasher, and yes this is normal for almost all of them. Attaching the wiring is really no harder than installing a light switch, just a couple wires and wire nuts, the box is already attached to most dishwashers. The store charges 100 plus dollars to install, but this is probably cheaper than hiring an electrician just to connect the wires.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It is not a plug in type of installation. It has to be "hard wired", so yes you need an electrician to wire it to the power source, it you do not know how to.
