Auger failed to rotate during wash cycle
The "dogs" were worn out; I used a socket and extension to remove the auger, then replaced the thrust spacer, auger-agitator along with the repair kit.
The most common culprit which wears out is usually the cam dogs. When you hear a grinding sound with the machine under a load, it usually means the dogs are not grabbing properly. If you see that the agitator isn't rotating, you will need to replace the nylon dogs. In most cases, the old auger will likely be in good shape, so it's important to check the teeth where the cam dogs make contact before ordering the parts.

Agitator was not turning during every wash
I am a woman and not very experienced with large appliance repairs. This was very simple thanks to the diagram posted and the other comments. It saved us time, repair costs and a new washer for now. The ultimate recycling :). Thank you to all who posted

Agitator was not spinning
Pretty simple, I removed one of the screws that holds the agitator, pulled it up completely and put the new one in. Took me 5 minutes to do so.

Cam wouldn't come loose
The cam in the agitator of the Whirlpool Ultimate Care II (LSQ7533JQ0) was a little different than the instructions and videos I could find on the web. The difference is that the cam has tabs that keep the cam in place with the agitator. I had to try to pry the tabs loose enough so that when I stood on the agitator base and then pulled up on the part of the agitator that pulls the clothes down, only then would the cam finally pop loose. Once I was able to do that, everything was easy to replace.

Agitator was slipping
It was easy after watching the video. No need to replace bolt. Recommend to remove the agitator inspect and the order the parts so that you get all in shipping. Grease is not needed and expensive to buy a tube, should have included as small one time applicator. Cleaning took more time then replacing the part.

Wouldn't agitate correctly
First, know that I am the least mechanical person in the world. Second, kudos to this website. Diagnosis was perfect, and the kit worked perfectly! If I were able to do this in under a half hour... anybody will be fine. Be sure to get the grease separately... I used silicone gel because that's what I had.
Saved about $90 probably!

The teeth on the one-way clutch of the upper part of the agitator were stripped.
The directions that came with the parts were very helpful.
1. Removed the softener dispenser. 2. Removed the bolt at the bottom of the exposed agitator. 3. Pulled up the agitator assembly. 4. Installed new parts. 5. Reversed process.
