How can I clean out awful odors from my dishwasher?
A awful sour smell will not go away! We have used every deodorant tab. Plummer’s investigated(cleaned the trap at the bottom). Called the appliance installer. They suggested Bleach followed by hot water. The smell went away for a couple days....then returned. The dishes get clean.

Did you empty and clean the drain/trap? I didn't know there was one but apparently most dishwashers have a basket that needs to be cleaned out. Who knew?
I ran vinegar through mine and it helped a lot. I also try to remember to keep the door cracked open a little bit when I go to bed so it can air out.
