I'm having problems with the washer agitating, I have opened the front and inspected the belt and the 2 pulleys, they where both spinning. What are some of the things that I need to check? Please help.:confused:

The splines in the agitator coupler may be stripped out. Can you grab the lower agitator fins and rotate the agitator? If so, remove the agitator by placing a strap under it and yanking upwards forcefully to pop it off, then remove the bolt holding the coupler down.

I forgot to tell you that it does spin dry. I grabbed the lower agitator and was able to spin it. Should I still change the agitator coupler?

After more inspection of the agitator coupling it is stripped. Thanks again.
