This Washer was agitating while filling and finishing soaking wet. Replaced the timer, now fills normally but won't start agitating. It spins and drains fine, just wont agitate. Any suggestions?

Probably the temp/pressure switch but I would first check that the air dome and hose are clear of any gunk. You can first just try unplugging the air hose on the back of the switch and forcefully blowing through it (with tub empty) to clear it. If the washer still won't work properly, remove the cabinet so you can better check the air dome and hose at the lower right rear quarter of the tub. Make sure it's clear and there are no splits/holes/kinks in the hose. If all is ok, replace the switch. If the switch turns out to fix the problem, complain loudly to Whirlpool. It is a very high failure item.
