Repair & Advice
Just followed steps found on YouTube , however after already having machine apart prior, realized there is no reason to pull off the door panel. It seems that the reason they have you do it is to access two screws that attach the lower front cover of the machine. If you just use a small ratchet with a torx bit, you can remove the two screws without all the unnecessary trouble of taking the door apart. Be sure to remove little plastic parts inside the filter drain hole and put into the new sump. I missed this step so the machine wouldn’t operate properly and it took me a bit of frustrated searching to figure it out. Also heed the warnings of sharp edges. They really are almost knife sharp. Found out the hard way. Overall pretty simple job, just takes a little time.
