Cactus for Model Number fws445rfs2 The washer is agitating very slowly and the agitator turns both ways, so I assume the "dogs" need to be replaced. However, when I remove the fabric softener dispenser from the top of the agitator, there is a cover under it with a tab in the middle that must come off before the agitator can be removed. How is this cover removed - does it pull off or turn off? Once removed, are replacement dogs available or must the whole agitator be replaced?
Answer Hello Cactus! The agitator cap can be pulled off. It may take a little bit of force. There are no dogs available. The entire agitator assembly will need to be replaced. Your part number is 131605901. Thanks! Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Wednesday, April 6, 2011
