11020102310 Kenmore Washer - Instructions

1St I took the top cap from the agitator, I then removed the middle cap. I then removed the 7/16th bolt from the middle of the agitator and removed the agitator. I took the old broken parts out and replaced them with the new parts. I then put everything back together in the reverse order tried the washing out and it works great. Actually I just followed the instructions, which took 20 minutes, and everything was kopacetic.

Removed the fabric softner despenser on to of agitator.
Removed the filter inside the agitator, pull straight up
Removed the bolt in the center of the agitator using a an extension on a 5/!6 socket.
Pulled the agitator out of washer removed inner works by hand. There are 4 fiberglass parts with teeth on them, I removed these 4 units and replaced them with new ones and it them put agitator back together in the reverse order. Works great.

I found the Agitator "dogs" (really that's their name) to be stripped. Ordered the part and got it within two days. It was a very easy fix and the old washer works great now.

I used a nut driver to remove the screw that held the to part of the agitator onto the bottom part. I then took out the worn out directional cogs and replaced them with new ones and re-assembled the agitator and was back in business. The agitator now works the way it should. Easy fix. The only negative part of this experience was that the shipping was twice as expensive as what the parts cost. Very fast shipping from PARTS SELECT .

Spin indicator light was illuminated but machine was repeating rinse cycle rather than spinning water out of clothes. Replaced the pulley and drive coupler, thinking there was a mechanical problem. Video instructions were great but old pulley and drive coupler looked perfect so replacing them did nothing. Next I replaced the washer actuator (shifter), thinking that was the reason for no high speed spin. Easy job, as shown in the video, but it also did nothing. The problem turned out to be a failure in the control panel, probably resulting from years of vibration. Decided to stop chasing my tail and bought a new washer.

Replaced the water inlet valve. Easy install… figured it out on my own, but checked the instructional online video to make sure it was done right.

very easy to repair , instructions very clear , parts person very good to talk to, parts got here fast

Removed the agitator with a socket wrench and replaced cogs as directed in repair video.

First I came to this web site and discovered some directions from other customers. I then followed those directions to disassemble the agitator. I removed the softener cup by pulling up on the blue plastic retention ring. I then used a flat head screwdriver to remove the plastic cap by placing the screwdriver into the slot on the side and prying it off. Next I used a 3/8 socket and extension to remove the bolt which holds the agitator to the shaft. After the bolt was removed I pulled up on the agitator and removed it from the washing machine. To remove the upper section of the agitator, I placed it on the ground and holding the base with my feet, I pulled on the upper section. I then removed the dog ears, verifyed the problem and ordered the parts (dog ears). The parts arrived in less time than promised, were installed in about 5 minutes and I was back to doing laundry. When you reassemble the agitator, turn it upside down to install the dog ears so they do not fall out.

Pop the cap on the agitator with a screwdriver then take out the bolt underneath. Replace the agitator dogs.

When putting the bolt back, don't tighten like its going to jump out of the washer. I think that's why I had to replace it a second time

The repair was very simple. I removed the agitator cap with a small screw driver, removed the retainer screw with a socket set tool. I removed the top agitator, lifted the cam and removed the old worn directional cogs installed the new ones. I reassembled the agitator. All of 10 minutes.... Very easy

Fabric softener dispenser simply lifts off the top of the agitator. Then, a flat head screwdriver, tucked anywhere under the edge of the cap, lifts/pries it off. Then drop a 1/2" drive extension(no socket as it simply is the extension itself) into the plastic "nut" and remove it while holding onto bottom of agitator with your other hand. Lift it out, replace the cogs and reverse for reassembly. Total time less than 5 minutes, including shipping was $10.50 for cogs - repair #4 completed thanks to the fine folks at PartSelect! PS - part arrived at my door less than 24 hrs after ordering it even tho I requested 2-3 day shipping.

I watched your video, followed the instructions, and
in 20 minutes I had a new washer! The repair man estimated the cost for repair at $150, but I didn't want to spend that much money on a 20-year-old washer, so I ordered the agitator repair kit, cost $12, and it arrived the very next day! I did exactly what the video indicated and within 30 minutes my washer was agitating like never before. Thank you so much for the video instruction, it was fantastic.

My kit didn't have instructions, and there was one thing not mentioned by others, so I'll pitch in this info: 1) pry off the agitator cap. 2) Removed the bolt with nut driver & lift out agitator. 3) Now, to get the cam assembly out, I had to use some long needle-nose pliers to snap off small horizontal tabs that extend from the old cam assembly. These tabs exert outward pressure on some vertical tabs that extend upward from the agitator base and hold the cam assembly in place. It probably wouldn't be a big deal if you broke off the vertical tabs by mistake, since the bolt would hold the cam assembly in place anyway. With the horizontal tabs gone, the old cam assembly can be lifted off the agitator base. 4) The new assembly can be put in place, but the vertical tabs just mentioned need to be positioned so that the new assembly can be slid over the top. If they are bent, the new cam assembly will not drop down in place! 5) re-assemble the rest. ALL IS GOOD!

Go to youtube and watch how to repair washing machine agitator. It is so easy. did the repair. Now it works, less than $20.00 to fix. Now I don't need to buy a new washing machine. Maybe it will make it another 15 years.....
