Lisa February 01, 2018 for Model Number WSDR2120J8WW After replacing the agitator coupling on my washing machine, the machine would agitate normally. Spinning has never been a problem. Eventually I'll notice the machine isn't agitating (either I can hear it not moving properly or there's an abundance of soap in the drain sink). The agitator just spins in my hand. I used to replace the coupling every few months. Now the last one only lasted 2 weeks. The coupling I'm using is WH49X10042. My machine is WDSR2120J8WW. I keep the loads small because of this issue. Any other ideas? Thanks.
1 Answer Lisa, It would be recommended to check the agitator coupler to ensure that the bolt did not back out of the coupler. If it did then you will want to put some loctite on it to help keep it in place. If the coupler bolt did not come loose then it could be the agitator that is stripped. Read More...
Davonne July 13, 2017 for Model Number WCXR1070TAWW The screw you use to attach the coupling has broken off inside the part you attach it to so I can't screw another coupling to it. I can put another coupling to it but can't screw it. Having to replace every month. How do I get broken screw out?
1 Answer Hello Davon. Try drilling it out and if you cant, you will need to replace the transmission. Read More...
Louvader May 18, 2017 for Model Number GTWN4250D0WS when replacing the coupling for the agitator should the teeth match or should it be teeth to groove?
1 Answer Hello Louvader, There is only 1 way the coupler will install onto the shaft of the transmission. You can not install it wrong. Read More...

Jan August 09, 2016 for Model Number WBB4500G2WW My washer fills up to my desired level and the green light does come on but when I put the lid down it does not agitate nor make any sounds. It is in total silence with standing water. What can I do?
1 Answer Hello Jan, Look at the control board on the top of the motor and count the number of flashes coming from the light. This is usually an error code and will indicate the issue with the unit. There is a tech sheet usually located on the unit. This will tell you the error based on the flashes. Read More...

Donna June 24, 2015 for Model Number WCSR2090G3WW Washer won't agitate. I removed the soap dispenser cap in top of agitator but cannot get to the bolt that seems to hold it on. Does this bolt actually hold the agitator down or is it simply a "brute strength" action required to pull the agitator off?
1 Answer Hello Donna, The agitator snaps onto the agitator coupler. When it is snapped loose the bolt on top of the coupler retains the agitator coupler. If the unit will agitate empty but a load stops the agitator, the issue is most likely the agitator coupler WH49X10042. Read More...
Earl N April 13, 2015 for Model Number Washer GE 4.1 CF, E-Star, mode #WHRE5550KWW Tub fills up & drains (almost) but will not agitate or spin?
1 Answer Earl, You will need to test the magnet WH12X10276 and the lid switch WH12X10334. This would be the most common cause for the unit to not agitate or spin. Read More...
C.M.C. February 22, 2015 for Model Number GHWN4250dww When I push the start button my washing machine does not run at all. The light goes on but does not make any sound or movement.
1 Answer Hello C.M.C., You will need to remove the front cover and observe the green LED under the splash shield on top of the motor. If it is flashing, you will need to count the flashes between the pauses and determine the fault code by the chart on the tech sheet in the control panel. If it is not flashing, the in-line fuse has probably opened. In this case, do not simply change the in-line fuse WH49X10055 because it will only open again. Most of the time when the in-line fuse opens, the motor assembly WH20X10094 will have to be replaced. Read More...

1 Answer Hello C.C., The part numbers you mentioned are correct for model number GTWN4250M0WS. I would definitely replace the coupler since it is the most common failure on this design. Read More...
