Agitator not working correctly and leaking from somewhere underneath.
I watched the videos before I ordered the part and when the order arrived I replaced the parts with no problems. The most time consuming part of the job was cleaning the washer. You will be surprised to find what will accumulate down there after years of service. The order came in in record time so this site gets an A+ for being fast a nd accurate. No back-orders either. I will surely use for any-other parts I need in the future.

Less than 15 mins
Tools:
Wrench set
Cogs were worn down, thus the top of the agitator would not move
Removed fabric softener cover, inner cover and removed screw and washer. Replaced cogs, changed the inner seal ring and changed out screw and washer. Put it all back together and done. This is the 2nd time I've had to replace cogs since I've had the washer.

We watched the video and kept the instructions close by. We did not have any problems with doing everything that the video showed and once it was all back together, it ran like it did in the past. Everything working good at this time.

Agitator wouldn't agitate.
DO NOT order the O-Ring that is recommended for this repair because it is already part of the kit. I was "recommended" by the site to order the O-Ring, so I did. But when the "Kit" came, it contained the O-Ring. Now I have an O-Ring I will never use. $6 wasted dollars. Shame. Oh, the repair was "brain-dead" easy. Any female could even do it ;)
