My washer is no longer agitating fully and is not getting my clothes clean. It will go through the rinse and spin cycles properly, though it seems to fill the tub up almost completely…which I don’t remember it always doing. Makes a louder than usual clicking noise when on the “Wash" setting, but tub barely goes back and forth.
Washplate If the washing machine will not agitate correctly the washplate might be damaged and stripped off the drive shaft. The agitator can be removed to check out the washplate connection point. https://www.repairclinic.com/PartDetail/…
Hi @nyckid69 The washplate sits on the hub and should move with it. Here’s the tech sheet for the washer. Run the diagnostics as described in the sheet and check what error codes you get. The sheet describes what to check for each given error code. You should be able to find out about the lid lock problem as well
After many hours of research. And an actual fix of my own, I found out that it’s the actuator that fails. They have an internal plastic pin that rotates the cam on the actuator to engage with the gearbox. ( shifts gears) These tend to break off. The washer will work normally throughout it’s cycles but the agitation will be very weak. Remove the actuator and if the little arm is just dangling replace it.
