Can you be more specific about what it is doing, I am not sure exactly what the problem is. It does sound like your transmission is the issue though and replacing it is not a difficult job.

washes,fills to rinse.starts to spin,trips motor over load.switch to spin cycle does the same thing.tries to agitate and spin at the same time.removed agitator runs through all cycles no problem. replaced dogs did not help.

Interesting, that it will go through the cycles with the agitator off.

I still suspect the transmission is the issue but you will have to replace it to be certain. If you buy from this site and the new transmission does not fix things you can return it.
