How to Troubleshoot & Replace Whirlpool AP6008032 / WP3349019 Washer Upper Agitator Clothes Mover

I replaced the thrust washer , agitator and agitator dog assembly. The repair took about 10 mins after watching the repair video. All works fine. Mike C 

This design is quite foolish. The top part of the agitator has BUILT IN plastic teeth that engage with plastic dogs. The dogs are designed to make the top part turn in only one direction, pulling the clothes down into the real agitator. I tried replacing just the dogs last year which worked fine for a year. I determined that the teeth on the top part of the agitator were worn out. I replaced the entire top part and the dogs again. Easy job, only one long extension on a 7/16" socket required. All good now. Those teeth lasted almost 15 years so I guess I can't complain too much. 

Watched video to confirm problem.. Ordered parts Sunday afternoon, received them Tuesday morning! Was washing clothes Tuesday afternoon! Sorry, I caused the delay by having lunch first... :) Amazing service from Appliance Parts Pros! I chatted with a representative who was very helpful and friendly, I usually hesitate to purchase online, but felt completely comfortably after her help. I am a 63 yr old female, this was my first attempt at washing machine repair and it was simple! I'm almost looking forward to another problem! Thanks APP!! I'd give you more stars if I could! 

Replaced upper agitator, engaging dogs, thrust washer. Easy repair. 

My sweetie and I watched the video a few times and then replaced the parts. 

Installed agitator repair kit, followed directions included. When separating upper and lower don't be afraid to gently put foot on it and give it a jerk. Don't forget to break off factory tabs as per directions. 

First things first, I got the model of my washing machine. Then I went to the Appliancepartspros.com website. I typed in the model number and clicked on the agitator picture. I watched the video and then went and took my agitator out - only one bolt. Everything was just like it was in the video so I ordered the parts. The parts arrived the next day - their regular delivery is so fast. I assembled the unit just like the video said and did my first load of laundry. It literally took only minutes! I've used the Appliancepartspros.com videos to do other repairs. They're great! 

Replaced agitator as the teeth were worn and replaced the pawls as they were worn too. The kit contained all the necessary parts and instructions. The job took about 10 minutes and all works fine.
