How can I secure my dishwasher now that it is fixed?http://www.flickr.com/photos/donnaohl/2337210342/

Every time I shut the door, it moves backward because there's no way I can
get to the screws that were holding it in in the first place.

Is it normal for a dishwasher to be screwed in at the top & then tiled
over?

There are two screws which I had to forcefully wrip out of the plastic of
the top of the dishwasher to work on the dishwasher to unclog the solenoid
filter screen.

It seems that whoever put the dishwasher in, screwed the dishwasher to the
counter from the plywood at the top of the counter BEFORE the tiles were
put in and then tiled over the screws.

The only way I could move the dishwasher was to tear the screws out of the
top of the dishwasher.

Now that the dishwasher is repaired, I have no way to rescrew the screws.

HOW am I supposed to keep the dishwasher from moving back and forth every
time I shut the door?

With any luck, the screws protrude slightly from the bottom of the
countertop wood.
Try using a visegrips or other strong pliers to unscrew them.

If that fails, you could locate the dishwasher lightly forward or back
from the orignal location, and put in a couple new screws. Get some
tough, stainless steel screws so they don't snap.
