My washer quit agitating a month ago and I replaced the Agitator. It worked for a month, now the Drive will not agitate at all. It sounds like it's working, but isn't. Everything else works on the washer. I don't know if it is timer, transmission or cogs. Can somene help be diagnose the problem? Thank You, Carla

Here's a wiring diagram for your Atlantis model. Remove the agitator. Open up the control console and unplug the connector to the water level switch (that's the switch that has a rubber hose going from it down into the cabinet). Make a jumper (INSULATED) between the white and yellow wires in the connector, to simulate a full tub of water; and start the machine in a wash cycle.

If you don't see an agitating motion in the agitator drive shaft, the problem is inside the transmission.
