My washer machine agitator bottom part does not rotate. I tested the machine by manually putting presure on it and it would than rotate. Once i remove my hand from it, it stops rotating. Draining and high speed spining does work perfectly. What could be the problem since the high speed cycle does work?:confused: :confused: Thank You...

The splines inside the agitator coupler may be stripped out. Pull the agitator by placing a strap under it near the center and yank upwards to pop it off. Grab the agitator coupler and try to rotate it by hand. It should not be easy to rotate it. Remove the bolt and agitator coupler and inspect inside the coupler for stripped out splines. Eric

Eric Thank You, i just order the agitator coupler and agitator dogs. Hopefully this will do the trick.

I am not aware of any replacement dogs for GE agitators. For GE, we just replace the whole agitator. Never tried to take one apart.
