Now turn the water off under the sink, then turn on both Hot and Cold water on top. This is to drain any extra water in them.

Now undo the water lines from under the cabinet, note some water will come out, that's why we have a towel and plastic container. Also disconnect the stopper

Also inspect the old lines, if any doubts, replace with new ones

Now turn the water back on and check for leaks, if you don't see any, go to top and turn the Hot and Cold water on.

Note it might be a little dirty when you first turn them on, again look underneath and check for leaks again
