GE Hotpoint washer won't spin

I don’t know the model off hand.. But the washer will fill up with water and won’t agitate…But when you push down on it, then it works. Then you let go it stops..But it drains and spins fine..Thank you

Hi.

Please be more specific on details like what you are pushing on and we definitely need the model number.

The model number is VBXR1090B0WW.. We was pushing down on the agitator

Hi.

Pull the agitator straight up, take the screw out and remove the coupling of the shaft.
Check if the coupling splines are stripped inside and out.
Check the agitator splines. Replace if needed.
The coupling AP3964635

The agitator AP3995147

Here are the breakdown diagrams and 03-Tub, Basket & Agitator parts for GE VBXR1090B0WW - AppliancePartsPros.com
