Function & Importance

In top‑load washers, the agitator is the central column inside the wash tub that moves clothes through the water and detergent, creating the mechanical action needed to loosen soil, distribute detergent, and rinse fabrics effectively. A properly functioning agitator:

• Drives the rotation and motion of laundry during wash cycles

• Ensures clothes are thoroughly moved and scrubbed for effective cleaning

• Maintains balanced operation and reduces strain on the washer’s transmission

Replacing a worn or damaged agitator with a genuine OEM Whirlpool part ensures the correct fit, alignment, and materials—critical for balanced wash motion and long‑term durability. Non‑OEM or mismatched agitators can cause uneven cleaning, excessive vibration, or premature wear on other drivetrain components.

Common Symptoms Indicating Replacement

You may need a new agitator if your washer exhibits the following washer‑specific signs:

• Clothing doesn’t move or tumble properly during wash cycles

• Poor wash performance or clothes still soiled after cycle

• Agitator feels loose, broken, or cracked when inspected

• Unusual knocking, rattling, or vibration from the wash tub during agitation

If worn or damaged, the agitator can’t effectively circulate laundry, resulting in diminished cleaning performance and potential stress on other internal components. Replacing this OEM agitator typically restores proper wash mechanics.
