agitator was making a large amount of noise
After the wife held the phone to the washer so I could hear the horrendous noise it was making. And I screaming at her "shut it off, shut it off!' I came home and took the agitator apart, and found the directional dogs worn out. Went to the computer and easily ordered new parts, which came very quickly. I took off the agitator with a long extension and socket, put in the new dogs and reversed for installation. Told the wife get back to doing the laundry!

Agitator Not Working Like It Should
Ordered the agitator repair kit and it came very fast.. Followed the instructions, the kit had all the parts needed.. Took around 30 minutes, but some of that was scraping the built up scale from the agitator itself, you might not have to do that.. Easy job.. Agitator now works like new.. Very Happy, and so is my wife, the kids looked and said, "Hey,my jeans go down to the bottom now, cool..!!"

agitator bumping and knocking
I removed the agitator top cap first. I reached inside and removed plastic cap. I then removed the 7/16 bolt inside the agitator and lifted it out of the machine. I put my foot on the bottom part of the agitator and pulled the top part off. I removed the plastic bushing in the bottom part and then removed the plastic bushing with the dog ears and the bolt. I used some appliance grease on the bushing on the bottom part and slid the top part of the agitator back in place and replaced the 7/16 bolt. It worked like a charm. My wife says I'm her hero. Thanks for making it so easy.

Washer would not agitate
I ordered the part and watched the installation video. It would have helped if I had watched the video all the way through at least once. Instead I paused and restarted it as I did the repair. As a result I had a hard time putting the agitator back together. Otherwise it was a fairly easy repair and my 20-year-old washer works great again!

4 small nylon pieces on shaft inside agitator, worn out, agitator would not turn properly. and
The process to replace the nylon pieces was to remove the protective cap, (which snaps in place),agitator (which is held in place with a nut) you will need a socket with an extention to reach the nut, and worn parts. replace the agitator repair kit, agitator and protective cap and your washer works as good as new. This is a very simple repair job, even a 10 yr old could do this

The agitator on the washing machine was not working at all; I was ready to call a repair man or buy a new washer
I popped the cap off of the agitator. I could see the grabbers weren't grabbing the side of the agitator. I thought I could take a shot at fixing it since I was ready to give up. Happened upon this site. With the model number, I was very easily able to find the parts I needed. Ordered them up. Took one bolt out of the assembly and the whole agitator came off. I popped in the new parts as the diagram was very easy to follow, resecured the bolt, and all was good. I saved a ton of money off replacement or even calling a service tech. Your site made this very easy with the detailed diagrams. Didn't order anything I didn't need. Only cost $11 to fix it and made me feel like Mr. Fixit. I will definitely use your site as my first, best choice for any problems I have in the future.
