Hello prichey35 – Thanks for your post!

Based on the symptoms you are describing, the leak seems to be coming out from quite a few areas near the kitchen sink: the water lines, plumbing lines, or garbage disposal lines. In this case, they seem to be either clog and/or possibly not high enough above the unit to prevent back flow. I would personally contact a professional to accurately diagnose the dishwasher and leak to determine the root cause to reduce the risk of unnecessary parts.
