Manufacturer Part Number: WH43X30957

The Agitator is an OEM part for GE washing machines. This part moves water and clothes through each other to remove dirt and stains effectively. The agitator's design ensures thorough cleaning by creating currents within the wash water, which agitate the clothes, ensuring they are evenly exposed to the detergent and water throughout the cycle.

The causes for the replacement of the agitator can range from wear and tear over time, which can reduce its efficiency, to physical damage from overloading the washing machine or foreign objects getting caught and causing blockages or breakages.

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Agitator include:

Clothes not coming out as clean as expected
The agitator is loose or not secured properly to its base
Strange noises during the wash cycle

This OEM GE part is also compatible with Hotpoint, RCA, and some Kenmore models.

Kristina August 02, 2024 for Model Number HTW240ASK5WS

Does the agitator come with everything that is needed to replace it? Do I need to order any additional pieces? Thank you!

1 Answer

Kristina, the agitator WH43X30957 will include all necessary parts of the agitator itself. However, it does not include the softener dispenser cup WH43X24454 or screw WH02X24374.

Curtiss October 02, 2023 for Model Number GTW330ASK2WW

We have the one-piece agitator with the bolt deep inside under the fabric softener cup. The bolt doesn't tighten or come out, I am told it just spins. Any suggestions? The agitator had gotten looser and looser and now will not agitate although the motor is running. Everything else has been checked out and eliminated. And before it stopped agitating completely it made awful noise intermittently. The problem is getting the agitator out. Again, this is not a two-piece where you can line up a nipple put a screwdriver in a hole, and pop it off. If the bolt is just spinning can it be pulled loose? Also concerns me that threads might be stripped as well. The first goal is to get that bolt out. Once we do that then we can order the replacement part. Also, we will need to order a new bolt. Apologies. On the agitator bolt issue. And it is a bolt, not a screw. I have just looked at it myself. The bolt is solid and the agitator just spins, he was not making himself clear. So the bolt is frozen. Are there any tricks to get it loosened up and out of there? I don't know if standard methods apply here. He kept saying he was going to take everything apart from underneath and I told him not to do that, it would not work. So please any suggestions? I just know complicated ways that he could do damage, so if you have a safe and easy solution please share.
