Whirlpool 80040 Genuine OEM Top Load Washer Agitator Dogs

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. When replacing this part, consider using Whirlpool's high-quality and easy-to-install replacement kit, which includes (4) new agitator dogs. The replacement process will require basic hand tools, such as a flat-blade screwdriver and a socket with a long extension, some disassembly of the appliance, and novice repair experience. Before installing this part, remember to unplug the appliance or shut off the house circuit breaker to ensure safety. Also, make sure to 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.
