Agitator Replacement on a Roper Washing Machine

[@wdeterling]

You video assisted me in getting the right parts and the fix was as simple as you demonstrated. The most difficult part of the repair was finding a second ratchet extender. Thanks for saving me $200-$300 in a repair call.

Glad this helped!

Thanks for this video! I was actually watching to see the disassembly so I could clean under it, but realized mine has the same grinding sound yours did. Thanks for the help realizing my washer needs some work!

Thanks.Been trying to unscrew that silly top cover for 15 minutes.Now I'm draining the washer that will probably be replaced.

Is this a whirlpool made unit

[@rvr2]

Yes

My bolt inside the agitator is fully stuck been trying to remove it for hours

The bottom part of my agitator doesn’t even move what does that mean 😅?

[@gordo66061]

The motor on mine just hums. An the agitator seems like it's locked up

[@markhoffman5719]

You are always agitating something. 🤣🤣

[@rvr2]

I just want to keep this washer working before Kate becomes agitated LOL!!

[@JamesDean-vl3uf]

Is the agitator supposed to go in just One direction or it's supposed to go back and forth the agitator?

[@rvr2]

Not sure what you mean exactly but depending on the stage in the wash cycle, it will move back and forth and also 1 direction..

[@JamesDean-vl3uf]

I have a very similar roper is it supposed to only spin in One direction or is it not supposed to go back and forth back and forth?
