Hello Evone. The only diagram we have is the parts diagram. You will need to remove the motor from the unit, and remove the pump from the motor. Then install the belt WP27001007 on the motor pulley and around the tension pulley like in the diagram. The large loop, goes around the large pulley in the washer. You will roll the belt onto the large pulley once the motor has been reinstalled with the belt on it correctly. Hope this helps. http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?model_id=22199&diagram_id=28336219
