Removed agitator cover with small screwdriver. Removed bolt holding agitator with socket on 6" extender. Pulled agitator up and out. Replaced thrust spacer adding tiny amount of silicone grease. Replaced agitator directional cogs adding small amount of silicone grease. Note direction of cogs first or they will make a loud ratcheting noise. Reassemble. The drawing on this site is helpful.

Fabric softener dispenser simply lifts off the top of the agitator. Then, a flat head screwdriver, tucked anywhere under the edge of the cap, lifts/pries it off. Then drop a 1/2" drive extension(no socket as it simply is the extension itself) into the plastic "nut" and remove it while holding onto bottom of agitator with your other hand. Lift it out, replace the cogs and reverse for reassembly. Total time less than 5 minutes, including shipping was $10.50 for cogs - repair #4 completed thanks to the fine folks at PartSelect! PS - part arrived at my door less than 24 hrs after ordering it even tho I requested 2-3 day shipping.

Pop the cap on the agitator with a screwdriver then take out the bolt underneath. Replace the agitator dogs.

When putting the bolt back, don't tighten like its going to jump out of the washer. I think that's why I had to replace it a second time

I found the Agitator "dogs" (really that's their name) to be stripped. Ordered the part and got it within two days. It was a very easy fix and the old washer works great now.

Removed the fabric softner despenser on to of agitator.
Removed the filter inside the agitator, pull straight up
Removed the bolt in the center of the agitator using a an extension on a 5/!6 socket.
Pulled the agitator out of washer removed inner works by hand. There are 4 fiberglass parts with teeth on them, I removed these 4 units and replaced them with new ones and it them put agitator back together in the reverse order. Works great.

I used a nut driver to remove the screw that held the to part of the agitator onto the bottom part. I then took out the worn out directional cogs and replaced them with new ones and re-assembled the agitator and was back in business. The agitator now works the way it should. Easy fix. The only negative part of this experience was that the shipping was twice as expensive as what the parts cost. Very fast shipping from PARTS SELECT .

Removed the agitator with a socket wrench and replaced cogs as directed in repair video.

The repair was very simple. I removed the agitator cap with a small screw driver, removed the retainer screw with a socket set tool. I removed the top agitator, lifted the cam and removed the old worn directional cogs installed the new ones. I reassembled the agitator. All of 10 minutes.... Very easy

First, I unscrewing the single bolt which keeps the two part agitator in place (agitator bolt). Second, I pulled the entire agitator out from the machine. third, I then seperated the top and bottom parts of the agitator. forth, I removed the old worn out "Agitator Direction Cogs". Fifth, I then inserted the new Agitatpr Direction Cogs"s. Six, I reassembling the top and bottom parts of the agitator. Seven, I reinstalled the reassembled agitator back into the machine. Eight, after inserting and tighting up the agitator bolt with a socket rench, and tured the machine on, it work like it was new again. .

It was really easy. I popped off the agitation cone cover, used a socket set to remove the bolt which holds it all together. I removed the broken part, assembled the new one, using the old one as a example. I installed the new one. . . And I have clean clothes again. So much better to fix the old machine then buy a new one. . .

1St I took the top cap from the agitator, I then removed the middle cap. I then removed the 7/16th bolt from the middle of the agitator and removed the agitator. I took the old broken parts out and replaced them with the new parts. I then put everything back together in the reverse order tried the washing out and it works great. Actually I just followed the instructions, which took 20 minutes, and everything was kopacetic.

First I came to this web site and discovered some directions from other customers. I then followed those directions to disassemble the agitator. I removed the softener cup by pulling up on the blue plastic retention ring. I then used a flat head screwdriver to remove the plastic cap by placing the screwdriver into the slot on the side and prying it off. Next I used a 3/8 socket and extension to remove the bolt which holds the agitator to the shaft. After the bolt was removed I pulled up on the agitator and removed it from the washing machine. To remove the upper section of the agitator, I placed it on the ground and holding the base with my feet, I pulled on the upper section. I then removed the dog ears, verifyed the problem and ordered the parts (dog ears). The parts arrived in less time than promised, were installed in about 5 minutes and I was back to doing laundry. When you reassemble the agitator, turn it upside down to install the dog ears so they do not fall out.

Removed the fabric cone from center of agitator pop out the plastic cover inside, remove bolt in center pull on agitator, remove cam holder and replace cams.
repeat process to re assemble

I had to find a point of reference first since item came apart in wash cycle and internal pieces fell out - thank goodness for YOUTUBE. Another guy was thoughtful enough to do a video on how the assembly came apart / went back together - a huge help for sure. Actual repair was less than a half hour after obtaining new part and seeing video. The 12 year old washer works like brand new - saving me close to 1,000 dollar replacement charges.
