I watched a Youtube video and the man said it was easy. I followed the instructions on taking the machine apart and found the bellow was cracked by the inlet of the soap dispenser. I looked up the model number and ordered a new bellow. The part came quickly. And again I watched the video on how to put it back together and it was easy. The second wire band was a bit tricky to get back on but I managed. I am an 81 year old lady.
