This complete agitator assembly includes the auger (upper portion) and base (lower portion) that work together to move clothes through the wash water in a top-load washer. The base sweeps clothes outward while the auger spirals them downward, creating thorough cleaning action. Replace this assembly if clothes are not getting clean, the agitator wobbles excessively, or the auger no longer ratchets and moves independently from the base.

Hello Jimmie, You either have a bad timer, (If the first two digits in the serial number begin with 14 or below, order 22003366. If the first two digits are 15 or higher order WP22003362), or a bad drive motor 12002353. You can test these with a test meter using the wiring diagram from the tech sheet on the unit. It normally isn't a bad idea to replace the belt set 12112425 in case of a stretched belt which impairs performance. You can order a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3 if you don't have one. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html
