Replacing pump on a Hotpoint WD61?

its a easy job
1. Make sure machine is unplugged from electricity supply
2. undo the back cover, this is secured with about 12 self tapping screws. You will see the pump sitting down at the bottom left of the machine
3. Tip the machine forward a bit and from underneath the machine undo the two self tappers that hold the pump on
4. remove the power supply plug from the pump
5. hold the pump over a bowl and with pliers loosen the spring clips that hold the sump and outlet hoses in place and remove the hoses from the pump ( its a good idea to remove the sump hose from the bottom of the drum to clean out the filter at the same time) thats the pump off. reasembly is just reverse instructions
