My washing machine does not agitate anywhere near the amount of time that it should, it seems like it fills, and agitates not even 5 minutes, and then it drains, spins and fills for the rinse. If it agitated longer, my clothes would get cleaner. Is it the timer?:mad::cool::confused:

Most likely the timer. Does timer advance while washer is filling? It shouldn't. If it is, turn washer off, open control panel and disconnect the tan wire from the water level pressure switch. Turn washer back on to continue filling. If timer is still advancing while filling, timer is bad. If it has stopped advancing while filling with tan wire disconnected, pressure switch is bad.
