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

Push-in.

This hose clamp secures a hose connection to prevent leaks and keep your appliance running smoothly. It provides a tight, reliable hold on the hose fitting so water or air stays contained during operation.

• Tightens around a hose and fitting to maintain a secure seal
• Helps stop drips, seepage, or loose connections
• Common fix when you see moisture around a hose joint
• Useful if a clamp is rusted, stretched, or no longer holding tension

• Unplug power and shut off water (if applicable) before servicing
• Note clamp position/orientation before removal
• Use appropriate screwdriver or nut driver to tighten evenly
• Do not overtighten—ensure a snug, leak-free seal without damaging the hose

This agitator drive shaft sits inside the washer's gearcase and transfers motion to the agitator. Replacing a worn or stripped shaft restores firm engagement and reliable wash action while helping reduce slip and grinding during agitation.

• Transfers oscillating motion from the transmission to the agitator
• Provides the splined interface that engages the agitator/coupler
• Common symptoms include no agitation, intermittent/slipping agitation, or grinding/clicking from the gearcase
• Visible wear, rounded splines, or a bent shaft can lead to a loose or non-moving agitator

• Disconnect power and water; use proper PPE
• Requires removing the cabinet and gearcase; drain and reseal the gearcase per service procedures
• Keep gears, spacers, and clips in order; reassemble in the original orientation
• Inspect mating parts (agitator coupler/splines, drive block, seals) and replace if worn

Used for lid switch.

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

This is the central wash-action component in select top-load washers. Replacing a worn or damaged agitator restores proper agitation so clothes circulate through water and detergent for consistent cleaning performance. What it does:

• Converts drive motion into the back-and-forth action that moves laundry
• Circulates clothes to improve soil removal and reduce tangling
• Replaces cracked, stripped, or loose agitators that cause weak or no agitation
• Common symptoms include poor cleaning, clothes not moving during wash, or an agitator that wobbles or spins freely by hand

• 1 agitator assembly

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing
• Remove the fabric softener dispenser and inner cap to access the center bolt
• Remove the bolt, lift off the old agitator, seat the new agitator on the splined shaft, and secure the bolt
• Reinstall the cap/dispenser; reuse original hardware as applicable and check for a secure fit before testing

This anti-rattle clip adds light spring tension to keep a small component snug and quiet during operation. Replacing a bent or missing clip helps reduce vibration noise and maintains a secure fit of the attached part.

• Applies tension to prevent rattling and buzzing during use
• Helps keep the mounted piece properly seated and aligned
• Common symptoms of failure: audible rattle, loose/wobbly component, missing or deformed clip
• Simple, drop-in replacement where the original clip is used

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
• Note the original clip's orientation; transfer the new clip the same way
• Use needle-nose pliers for placement; avoid over-bending the clip
• The component is secure and clears adjacent parts before reassembly

This centerpost bearing supports the washer's spin basket on the stationary center post, providing a low-friction surface for smooth, quiet rotation. Replacing a worn bearing helps restore proper spin performance and reduce noise and vibration.

• Supports and centers the spin basket on the tub centerpost/drive shaft
• Provides a low-friction bearing surface to reduce wear and noise
• Helps maintain basket alignment and stability during spin
• When worn, may cause grinding or squealing in spin, excessive vibration or wobble, and poor/slow spin

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing; use proper PPE
• Access typically requires removing the agitator, inner basket, and related drive components
• Clean mating surfaces; inspect the centerpost/spin tube and tub seal and replace any worn seals per service guidance
• Seat the bearing fully and verify smooth basket rotation before reassembly

The Screw is an OEM component compatible with Whirlpool washing machines. This screw secures the rear bulkhead to the tub, ensuring vibrations are reduced through solid mounting points. Properly installed screws dampen oscillating movement.

Causes of a bad screw include damage from water exposure like corrosion or breakage from stress concentrations if the tub bangs around during imbalanced loads. 

Symptoms of a bad screw include:

• Loose or detached rear bulkhead allowing side-to-side play
• Excessive noise and shaking felt through the surrounding walls   
• Development of micro-cracks around screw holes over time
• Potential leak paths if holes are no longer sealed 

This Whirlpool replacement screw restores a stable suspension system. It is compatible with additional brands like Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

The Washer Timer Dial is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washers. Positioned just behind the washer timer knob, the timer dial features a gray indicator that helps the user select the appropriate cycle. It interacts with the timer to ensure the washer operates in the correct mode and duration according to the chosen cycle.

Color: White

Over time, the timer dial may degrade due to regular use, excessive force during cycle selection, or accidental impact. This can lead to inaccurate cycle selection, making it hard to use the washer efficiently.

Symptoms of a faulty Washer Timer Dial include:

• Misalignment or sticking when choosing cycles
• Difficulty accurately selecting the desired cycle
• Cracked or broken indicator

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

• Attaches to the control/timer shaft on the front panel
• Lets you turn and select cycles or options
• Restores a snug fit when the original knob is cracked or stripped
• Common symptoms: knob spins freely, falls off, won't turn settings, or is missing

• 1 gray control knob

• Disconnect power before servicing
• Pull the old knob straight off the shaft; retain any insert/clip used by your model
• Align the new knob with the shaft and press firmly until fully seated
