Todd from WLL suggested to me to get all three parts to cover my bases. It makes sense since they are all connected together. Hate to replace one part and it may have been another and have to do the process all over again. I was covered under the warranty, and WLL sent me all 3 parts per Todd's suggestions. They did it with no questions asked.
I finally got everything changed out. I found no instructions anywhere to do this. I just opened it up put everything right where the old parts were. Had to get my husband involved and he found that it was easier to unscrew the screws from the bottom of the machine that the pump brackets are attached to. Then just disconnect the hoses. Now it works great. It even seems a little quieter than the original pump. It sure would have been a lot easier if the pump was located in the back instead of the front of the machine.
