Repair Whirlpool Kenmore Washer That Won't Agitate

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

No agitation or a slipping agitator on a Kenmore or Whirlpool washing machine can often be easily repaired by replacing the dog agits. Whirlpool also makes clothes washer brands Roper & KitchenAid.
There are several names for dog agits, they are also called directional cogs, dog ears or just dogs. The small ridges on the dog agits wear down and then the top part of the agitator won't properly turn. The washer will still spin.
This video shows how to remove the agitator and auger from a Kenmore washing machine. Then the cam that holds the dog agits is removed and the agits are replaced with genuine whirlpool part 80040.

    It's worth repairing the old appliances if you can do it yourself. The new ones won't last as long. I still have the washer & dryer set. I did a little rehab on the dryer about 5 years ago. It needed a new felt seal. There are videos on the channel for the dryer repairs.

    My friend got a new washer and dryer a couple of years ago. The guy delivering them told her, "These won't last as long as those did." A couple of years ago, I gave the dryer some TLC. I replaced the felt seal (video on the channel for that) and a few other small things. I cleaned out the lint chute and vacuumed the fuzz off of the motor. Cleaning off the motor every once in a while is a good idea. If it gets covered with lint it will run hot... not good. I am going to repair them as long as I can. If we really cared about being "green" we would demand that products are made to be easily repaired and not planned to fail.

    Thank you SO SO much! For a couple of months now, I kept thinking that I need to buy a new washer because it wasn't agitating well. I was resigned to the idea that I would be spending at least $500-$600. 3 days ago I decided to search for possible solutions as to why it wasn't agitating and came across your video. I followed you step by step and found the dog agits were worn down. I ordered a set from Amazon and they arrived today. I already had the unit disassembled and it took a whopping 2 minutes and 57 seconds to put in the new ones and put it all together and now, I have a washer that works great! Again, many thanks!

    This is the exact same agitator assembly that my Kenmore washer has, so the video was especially easy to follow. I had to use some channel lock pliers to get that softener lock ring to snap up, and the cam/agitator reassembly was confusing on first attempt. I wish I had taken a picture once the dust cover was removed, but I figured it out on the second attempt. Thank you so much! My agitator is working again and I probably only spent 10 minutes on the repair.

    Thank you! One of my parents' friend's agitator stopped working, and my mom told him just to go buy a new washing machine because his is so old. That broke my heart! I learned a long time ago that you need to hang onto those good old washers for dear life because the fancy new machines are pretty much disposable as well as expensive. So, for ≈ $18 & with the help of your video, I bought a new agitator assembly and clutch for the motor (just in case), and I have him back in business. I bagged & labelled the extra parts with instructions and attached them to the back of the machine so he will have them handy if he needs them. Buying the extra parts is still way less expensive than a new washing machine! Bonus: before I could even get back home, he had already called my mom to tell her how smart I am. If he only knew my little secret...! 😂😂😂 Thanks again for sharing your knowledge so that I could help save the day for a family friend. ✌🏻💜🛼

    just used this video today! I have the same washer. The old stuff lasts! Kind of breezed through the video and then came back up to actually pay attention. lol. The 2 pieces were stuck together and I didn't want to break anything. So, i get to the part where she says just put it on the floor and stand on it and pull. I laughed and went back downstairs and had it apart in 5 seconds. Ran down to the appliance store and $4 later, problem solved. Also, took the parts outside and cleaned them up really well with a degreaser while they were apart. All pieces back to looking like new and 5 minutes later, we had a perfectly functioning machine again! Thank you for a perfect video presentation. Everything you could need to get it done, fixed and back to normal!

    @Know-How-Now Agreed! I see refrigerators from the 70's still going! Yet these brand new Samsungs and LG's have mother boards that can launch a rocket into space🤣 They leak, freeze up, boards fry, etc. Some within the first month's. Our tech gets better every day but we can't build a simple air conditioner for food anymore! The video was very helpful indeed. Amongst a sea of useless nonsense on the web, this was like turn by turn directions on a GPS to get there and get it done. Great job on the video. Years later, it's still making an impact😁

    I think the new appliances are deliberately made to have a short life. IMHO, those circuit boards are a big part of the problem. It's likely too expensive for an after market board to be made by someone other than the manufacturer. When they fail, the price of the replacement board plus the labor the replace it (many people can't do their own repair) makes a new appliance the best option. Sad. A neighbor just bought a new stove. It failed after a few uses. It sat unusable for two months, during 3-4 service calls and then a wait for new parts. They told her to buy a hot plate.

    You are welcome. The washer and it's companion dryer in the video are still going strong. If you have the dryer, there are a few videos on the channel on how to make some repairs on that. Also, the water inlet valve failed on the washer a few years ago. That's easy to diagnose and replace. I have a video for that repair too.

    Sorry for the delay in replying, you comment almost got past me. I have a few thoughts. Are you sure you put the new dog agits in place the correct way? You may be able to find a parts diagram at one of the on line part suppliers for your model to verify the correct positioning. The other thought is did you get the correct replacement parts? Maybe wrong parts were sent to you or the correct part was misidentified for your machine.

  • @Know-How-Now

    Grasp the top of the agitator and turn it clockwise, only the top half of the agitator should spin. Then try turning the agitator counter clockwise, both the top & bottom pieces of the agitator should turn at the same time (as one piece).... that means the "dogs" are catching and working properly. If it's not working like this, then perhaps you have the wrong "dogs" or they are not properly installed.

  • @jadephoenixmama

    So I checked it out. And it looks as though I may have tightened the bolt too tight. I rechecked the dogs were installed properly and catching then when I put the bolt back it wasn’t working quite right any more. Loosened the bolt and it allowed the top part to spin at each turn then the dogs would catch.

    Find the plate on the washer with the model number. Look for it under the lid. There are many appliance parts sellers. Find one of their websites, do a search with your model number. Get the part number. I always try to get OEM parts. You might find the part on eBay.

    Thank you so much I have not got the dogs yet but I took mine apart and all of mine were gone. And of course I have the washing machine that you're talkin about that it does not have bolt at the top and mine has a ring around it where it looks like the dogs fit on to one ring. I hope this is what's wrong I can put the washing machine on rinse or spin and it will drain out the water. I'm so hoping this is what is wrong. If so you just made my day so close to Christmas. Really cannot afford a new washing machine right now now where can I find the parts? I'm sure I will probably have to order them off of Amazon or somewhere if anyone has any suggestions on where to get the dogs at please let me know thank you. And to the one who made this video you rock and I know I probably did not spill those little things right but IDC

    If they are gone, for sure you have one problem. If possible buy OEM parts (parts from Wirlpool). Find the ID tag on the washer, mine is inside the lid. Do an internet search for you washer make & model number. You will find sellers who will show a parts diagram. Get the part number for the correct dog agits. If it's the same as mine, here is a reputable seller on eBay- see below. Merry Christmas. www.ebay.com/itm/113026173717?hash=item1a50e28b15:g:57wAAOSwjWJgNAxs
