Kenmore Washer 110.20022011 (11020022011, 110 20022011) Will not agitate or doesn't agitate

The Washer Agitator Dog set is a set of 4 OEM replacement parts for Whirlpool and Kenmore washing machines, designed to engage the agitator, allowing it to move in one direction and lock in the opposite direction. The agitator dogs also come available in the agitator repair kit WP8537433. Check your model number for compatibility.

Symptoms of failing Agitator Dogs include:

• The agitator not moving
• Only moving in one direction
• Clothes not getting cleaned due to lack of agitation
• Clothes becoming tangled

Causes of bad Agitator Dogs can range from normal wear and tear, which gradually erodes their teeth, making them too smooth to engage the agitator properly, to overloading the washing machine, which puts extra stress on the agitator and accelerates the wear of the dogs.

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

The Thrust Washer is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines, specifically designed to reduce friction between the moving parts of the washer's transmission system. This small but crucial component is placed between the rotating and stationary parts, allowing for smooth movement and preventing wear and tear on the transmission.  

Causes for a Thrust Washer to fail include regular wear and tear from the mechanical stress of washing cycles, improper alignment or installation that can lead to uneven wear, and the accumulation of debris or corrosion that can interfere with its function. 

Symptoms of a bad Thrust Washer include:

• The washing machine makes unusual noises during operation 
• The washer struggles to switch between cycles or fails to spin at the correct speed.
• Increased vibration or shaking of the washing machine

This OEM Whirlpool part can also be used on Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore/Sears brand appliances.

Causes of a bad clutch kit include worn parts that have aged from repeated use. Signs include slipping, grinding, or clicking noises from the transmission area.

Symptoms of a faulty clutch kit are:

• The washer tub failing to turn or agitate clothes during wash cycles  
• Delayed starts or intermittent rotation

This OEM replacement is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models. 

The washer drive belt transfers motor power to the washer’s drive system so the basket spins and agitates. Replacing a stretched or broken belt helps stop squealing and slipping so cycles finish at proper spin speed.

What it does

• Links the drive motor to the washer’s drive/pulley system
• Restores spin and agitation when the belt is worn, glazed, or broken
• Can reduce squeal or burning-rubber smells from belt slip
• Helps prevent intermittent or no-spin conditions

What’s included
One drive belt.

Install notes

• Unplug power; turn off water
• Tip the washer back; remove the bottom shield/cover if present
• Route the belt over the motor and drive pulleys; rotate by hand to seat fully
• Inspect pulleys/drive parts for wear; run a spin or calibration test after install

This OEM Whirlpool belt is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore washer models.

This small bearing supports the driven cam within the mechanism, ensuring smooth rotation and consistent actuation. Replace it if the original bearing wears, cracks, or binds to restore reliable, quieter operation.

• Provides a low-friction pivot point for the driven cam
• Keeps the cam aligned for accurate, repeatable actuation
• Reduces friction, wear, and squeaking/grinding noises from the cam assembly
• Common symptoms include sticking/binding motion, noisy operation, inconsistent actuation, or visible bearing damage

• Disconnect power to the appliance; turn off water supply if applicable
• Access the cam assembly and note the orientation of parts
• Seat the new bearing fully and reuse any original retainers/spacers as required
• Manually rotate the cam to verify smooth movement before reassembly and testing

This Agitator Auger is the upper half of a dual-action washer agitator. It works with the agitator cam and dogs to create the screw-like motion that pulls clothes downward; replace if the top agitator slips, cracks, or stops turning.

• Forms the upper agitator that produces the ratcheting, spiral action for proper wash turnover
• Common symptoms include the upper agitator not moving, free-spinning or slipping under load, and visible cracks or stripped splines/fins
• Restores correct clothing movement and agitation performance when the upper section no longer drives

• Disconnect power and water before servicing
• Remove the fabric softener dispenser and inner cap, then unbolt and lift off the agitator to access the auger
• Transfer internal components (cam and agitator dogs) if reusing; inspect for wear during reassembly
• Align splines, seat the auger fully, tighten fasteners securely, and test the agitation function

This washer agitator is the central wash-motion component. It mounts to the drive hub and churns laundry through water and detergent, restoring proper turnover when the original agitator is cracked, stripped, or missing.

• Creates the back-and-forth wash action that moves clothes through the wash water
• Restores proper turnover and cleaning when the old agitator is damaged or worn
• Typical symptoms: no or weak agitation, clothes not moving, clicking/ratcheting from the agitator area, or a loose/wobbly agitator
• Visual issues may include cracks, stripped splines, or a unit that lifts off easily

• Disconnect power and shut off water before servicing; wear cut-resistant gloves
• Remove the softener dispenser and cap, then the center bolt/retainer; pull the old agitator straight up
• Align splines and seat the new agitator fully; reuse existing bolt and cap unless damaged
• Do not overtighten the fastener; run a short test cycle to ensure proper agitation

The Shift Actuator is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. It is an electronic component located inside the transmission that controls the shifting between wash cycles. The shift actuator receives signals from the washer control board to change modes, initiating proper movements to advance the cycle.

Symptoms of a bad shift actuator include:

• The washer fails to advance through cycles properly
• Gets stuck in one phase of the wash cycle
• Makes abnormal noises during operation
• Does not agitate or spin as expected

Over time, environmental factors and normal wear and tear can cause the shift actuator to malfunction. 

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

NOTE: This new version of the part features a redesigned black plastic housing with an adapter wire harness. It replaces the older version that came in red plastic. The new part is guaranteed to fit and function like the original.
