Kathy February 12, 2020 for Model Number WTW5810SW0 Do I need to use agitator grease when installing the thrust spacer washer and/or cam kit? If so, where is it applied?
Corey April 17, 2015 I had a string wrap around the agitator one day. Now during the wash cycle it makes a loud noise like something isn't catching or is slipping, like a loud clicking. I replaced the entire agitator assembly and still have the issue. If I run a cycle without clothes then it does not have these issues. But when running a cycle with clothes it returns. What do you think could be the issue? It spins and everything else seems to work fine.
1 Answer Hello Corey, If you could please verify the model number from the units' I.D. tag and post this for us, we can look up the configuration and give you some logical troubleshooting information. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...
Joyce R May 06, 2014 for Model Number LSQ9549PW2 Replaced agitator dogs. My Question the large bottom base has 4 tabs, should they be removed before adding thrust washer? They look permanent.
1 Answer Hello Joyce. You do not have to remove them, but it does make it easier to install the agitator if you break those off. The instructions in the cam kit tells you this. Read More...
Teresa March 16, 2014 for Model Number lsq9010pg1 type 111 I am looking at the thrust washer on your website and the one on your website slides down n the bottom aggitator and the one i have slides over the top section of the bottom aggitator and it is flat where yours looks to be about 2 inches tall. I cant use the one that you have on your website because mine dont slide down inside the lower aggitator. Is there another thrust washer avalible or what should i do.
1 Answer Teresa, The thrust spacer washer part number WP3951608 is the part that goes on top of the bottom agitator and is flat. Read More...

Sam February 20, 2013 for Model Number WTW5200VQ2 Hello, the problem is that the clothes just wind around the agitator and makes a noise while washing. I replaced the cam agitator assembly, bolt and washer (the old dogs looked wore out) but the problem is still there. It seems to me that there is alot of play between the top part of the agitator and the bottom. There is a plastic looking washer between the two parts, but should there be something else or is there another part that is worn out? Could that plastic washer be worn? Thanks, Sam
1 Answer Sam, The thrust spacer can and does wear, and will usually melt to the agitator if it is damaged or allowwed to wear excessively. As for the "play" in between the two parts, that's usually not an issue. You do want to make sure that the agitator bolt is tight, and there is little to no up and down movement in the bottom part of the agitator. grasp the clothes mover (auger) and attempt to turn it in both directions, it should "lock up" when turned in one direction and move freely in the other. If all's OK, you will need to check for proper water fill levels, and that the washer is not being overloaded. Read More...

I replaced the dogs and felt that I should check the thrust washer but I did not find one between the lower and upper agitator. The exploded diagrams do not show one either.
