With a test light, find out if the above counter switch turns on the top and
or the bottom receptacle. My assumption would be that one outlet is live
constantly, for the dishwasher, and the other works off the switch, for the
disposal. If the switch used to control one of the outlets, but now doesn't,
you need to replace the switch

I replaced an electrical plug under the sink in the kitchen.
Currently is does not work properly. If the garbage disposal is
plugged in the outlet then the disposal stays on even when the switch
is off at the sink above the counter. Both the disposal and
dishwasher are plugged in the outlet. What do I need to fix with the
wiring?
