3LSC8255EQ1 Whirlpool Washer - Instructions

Removed the cap and the unit that held the cogs or dogs. Replaced and reassembled. Took about 5 minutes.

Pop the top of the agitator off, 3/8th socket to remove the bolt holding the entire Agitator assembly, pull straight up to remove the entire agitator assembly, remove agitator dog assembly, pull plastic retainer holding agitator dogs in, replace agitator dogs, replace plastic that holds them and just put the thing back together. If it takes more than ten minutes you must have stopped for a beer break

replased all the springs

We followed the step by step video that you had posted for those parts. It is now working wonderfully. The repair man had told us it could not be repaired. Thank you so much for having these do it yourself instructions.

Used agitator repair kit and it went together perfectly

Followed the video did not need to tilt machine over. Layed on floor it was more comfortable. The most difficult part was putting back on the tension band on top that's because I got a little tired on the food. Thanks for all your help. I bet I saved over $250.00 if a service tech came to fix this. You guys are the best

Took the water softener thing off, then there is another cover you just pull up on and it comes right out. pull the thing that has the agitator directional cogs ouy and replace them. Put it all back and you are done

real easy i follow your video step by step those video are great txs,.

Once you take the housing off it's only two clips to remove the water pump from the motor, then two screws and two more clips to remove the motor itself. One issue I ran into was the new coupling was hard to put on, so the first time I did I overheated the motor because it was binding (was also very hard to get the motor back on). After taking it apart again, and slightly tapping both couplings with a hammer the motor went on very easy and washer works like a champ!

I got the agitator repair kit listed on this site (received it promptly just a couple days after ordering). Instructions were fine, but kit does not include a new bolt (not needed), as indicated in the video, nor does it contain the agitator grease. The bolt can be ordered from this site. I just used plumber's grease. Kit does include a new washer for the bolt and the rubber ring seal for the cap. The process is fairly easy, though, for me, the top part of the agitator did not snap together with the bottom, as seems to be the case in the video. I had to clean much caked on calcium carbonate (I think) under the agitator. Anyway, the washer works properly now. Thanks for quick delivery of the kit! Mark
