Will dishwasher drain if sink doesn't drain, if it's clogged just
inside the garbage disposal, and the garbage disposal is rusted in
place.

I have to replace the GD, but can I use the DW until then?

Insinkerator 0.5 HP GD and Kenmore DW.

Thanks

Depends on your setup. Most often, the DW empties into the upper portion of
the GD and no, it will not drain.

I've have also seen where the DW drains directly into the drain pipe after
the disposal, then yes, it will drain. Go look where the hose goes.
