4GNTW4600YQ2 Washer - Instructions

I removed the softener cup from the top of the agitator unit. The auger works separately from the bottom agitator. Remove the cap from down in the auger. There is a 7/16" bolt that holds the Auger and agitator to the center shaft. Loosen that bolt with a 7/16" socket on an extension from the ratchet wrench, and remove it from the bushing- I used a magnet. You will need to hold the agitator to loosen the bolt. Save that bolt. You will need it later. The entire agitator and auger can be lifted as a unit straight up out of the washer tub. There is a plastic bushing in the replacement kit. Slide it down over the center shaft with the small tabs up, then apply some Vaseline to the tabs as a lubricant. The new agitator can now be slipped down over the center shaft and seated on the bushing. Place the top auger onto the shaft down on to the agitator. Next, assemble the top bushing by placing the four cogs into the slots with the small pegs. The cogs must have the side with the raised area on the top of the assembly. Next push the plastic keeper down over the center of the bushing to hold the cogs in place and push it down to secure the cogs. Place this assembly into center shaft and line up the four rectangular holes in the top bushing with the four plastic prongs below. The top bushing assembly may be pushed down and secured by the four upright pegs below. If there are plastic tabs obstructing the rectangular holes in the top bushing , you can put the bolt back into the center hole and carefully tighten it down making sure the four holes align with the four pegs below. Tighten until the top bushing is securely in place. You will need to hold the lower agitator while you tighten the bolt with the socket wrench. Replace cap over the top bushing, then the softener cup into the top of the agitator assembly. The job is complete.

Went to website and found question to what problem i was having with washer and they gave me a list of parts to fix it. The video that showed me how to change the parts was very helpful. I replaced the Agitator Cam Kit and the thrust washer. It was very easy to do and watching the video before i started helped.

Removed softener dispenser, removed part under that to reveal bolt that holds agitator on to washer. Figured out there was more to the problem than just the dog ear things and had to end up getting a whole new agitator. Probably saved us $60 minimum in labor and trip charge and was a piece of cake! Took my husband less than 15 mins. to remove old agitator and put on new one. Geez, I guess I have to do laundry again!

I took out the softner dispencer and there is a bolt under tthe the plastic cover,I removed the bolt and the whole assembly came out,then I installed the new one and reinstlled the bolt and plastic cover,and reinserted the liquid softner dispencer.All only took about fifteen min.

We also purchased from this site the agitator repair kit! The youtube videos were extremely helpful!

I just ordered the complete agitator kit since I didn't know for sure what I all needed, and it made my repair so easy replacing since it was all complete. I followed video which was a great help. Got it all done in 25 minutes. Very easy. Thank you...

Removed the fabric softener cup, remove plastic cap that prevents fabric softener from going into the agitator column, removed screw, replaced dog teeth and cap that holds them in place, put agitator back together.... Done.

remove softener dispenser and one other snap out part then remove on bolt, removed old part (took some coaxing with a screwdriver) glad i ordered the combo part instead of the dogs only as I had to almost destroy the old part to remove it. Installed the new part and my clothes are now once more agitated.

Removed the agitator and seperated the top unit notice the cam arm were worn, order the parts on line Sunday After noon and recieved the parts the next week! Great service very easy I did call customer Service checking on delivery spoke Steve who was very helpful.

I went on YouTube and seen how to do this job it showed it to be quite simple I then went on parts select.com put in my model serial number and was able to come up with a complete parts breakdown I then ordered the parts that I needed when they arrived I installed them the washer is working great thank you Parts select

Replacement

just take it apart and re-install the reverse of taking apart. simple !

watched the video it was very helpful ~ repair went smooth ~ had to have a friend hold the tub in place while I broke the bolt loose.

I did the repair as specified in the excellent video supplied with the confirmation of my order. It would not have take more than 15 minutes if I had ignored the 13 years of built up scum on all the parts as I disassembled the agitator. Cleaning everything before reassembling took most of the time. It made no sense to me to have the agitator apart without cleaning everything. It works fine now and looks shiny clean.
