Breast Pump Not Working?

"I have a medela breast pump which is less than a year old, and now it's not pumping and I'm pretty sure it's the motor. I've bought new valves and membranes and tried that but no luck."

ANSWER: The first thing to try is replacing the valves and membranes, as you have done. Now you need to try flushing out the motor using a teaspoon or so of warm water poured in through the part where you attach the tube, do it while it's running.
