80040 Whirlpool Washer Agitator Dog Kit
The Top Load Washer Agitator Dogs facilitate agitation during the cleaning cycle. If the top part of the agitator in your appliance is not moving properly but the bottom still functions correctly, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. This repair kit includes (4) agitator dogs. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the appliance and novice repair experience. You must unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker before installing this part. Also make sure you turn off the hot and cold water supplies. We also recommend using affresh® Washing Machine Cleaner Tablets* (item W10135699) once a month to help reduce odor-causing residue that can build up in your washing machine's drain without proper care. *affresh® brand products are owned and distributed by Whirlpool Corporation.
