WHIRLPOOL CORP AGITATOR W10836496

This Top Load Washer Upper Agitator is connected to the lower agitator and the whole assembly helps to spin your clothes properly so they can be washed. If your clothes aren't being agitated or if there is an unusual sound during the cleaning cycle, replacing this part may alleviate the issue. Replacing this part will require basic hand tools, some disassembly of the washing machine and novice repair experience. You must unplug the washing machine or shut off the house circuit breaker for the appliance before installing this part. Helpful Tip: We also recommend using affresh® Washing Machine Cleaner* (item W10501250) 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.
