how can I change the pump on my Hotpoint WD61?

power off lower drain hose into a bowl now lower bowl down to floor water should flow by gravity empty bowl 2/3 times when stopped follow the pipe down to rear of machine remove the rear lower panel, this will expose the pump put a old towel under the pump and with adjustable pliers squeeze the clip that holds the hose to the pump, do the same to the other end remove the spade connection/s, remove the screws that hold the pump to the base of the machine,remove old pump replace with new and reassemble
