There should be a small junction box under the dishwasher behind the front toe panel. There should be three wires:
BLACK - HOT (120VAC)
WHITE - NEUTRAL (0 VAC)
GREEN - GROUND
You can purchase a three conductor power cord from any hardware store. A 3-prong power tool power cord works the best, as they have a durable outer sheathing and have good current handling properties.
Simply match the corresponding colors (black to black, white to white) and ground the green wire to the chassis. There should be a ground lug somewhere to connect it to.
Use wire lugs when splicing wires together and use the wire strain relief (if equipped) on the junction box. The strain relief is located at the point where the wire enters the junction box and keeps the wires from inadvertently being pulled.
If you have any questions, please post back and let me know. I hope this helps you.
