Is This the Right Part?

✅ Cross Reference Information

Common Symptoms

• Upper agitator section does not rotate or engage normally during agitation
• Broken, cracked, or missing agitator fins
• Agitator makes abnormal noise during operation
• Agitator is loose or wobbles excessively

Check Before Replacing

• Disconnect washer power before inspecting the agitator.
• With the washer empty and powered off, visually inspect the agitator for broken fins, cracks, excessive wear, or deformation.
• Check whether the agitator is loose or visibly wobbly when gently moved by hand; do not force it.
• Confirm that the agitator is seated fully on its coupler or drive shaft and that the visible engagement slots or splines appear aligned.
• If the agitator appears intact and properly seated but agitation remains ineffective, have the drive system and related components evaluated rather than assuming the agitator is the cause.
