My washer works great, except for the agitator!! It sounds like it is trying to work but no movement. I have pulled the agitator off, the top half works (the racheting action). I pulled the bolt out and took the gear off the transmission drive shaft, the gear was free spinning prior to removal. It seems like the gear is falling too far down and not engaging the splines. The hub nut doubles as the spacer??? That seems to me the only thing that keeps the gear engaged, is this right?? Any help would be appreciated, Thank You!
I forgot to mention that I can’t stick my finger inside that gear to fill the splines, or if there are supposed to be splines all the way up that gear. If there is supposed to be splines all the way up, I can see that there are none, so maybe that is the problem?
