    Thank you sir for this video. I spent 20 minutes trying to pull and pry it. Watched your video, grabbed some Paracord because I didn't have a shoe lace and it was off in 10 seconds.

    I have to replace this agitator so frequently that I keep a spare on hand. With the efficiency of a NASCAR pit crew, I'm in and out in 15 minutes using the 'glove and hammer' method. Thanks to your brilliant idea, I've shaved an additional 3 minutes off my best time. I used 40# test braided nylon trolling line and it worked like a dream!

      The sockets needs to be the exact same size as the bolt head and the impact needs to be exactly up and down without being at an angle at all
      Is it salvageable? They make a socket head now that has pins in it that will grab even a stripped head.

    I had an awful noise coming from my washer. I thought something was seriously broken. Turns out it was a kids necklace to at was wedged. I was trying to figure out how to remove the agitator and this was a big help. I used a piece of paracord and it worked well. Just had to work at it a little bit and it popped up! I also found two dimes and a washer. The dimes had huge wear marks as it appears they hd been there a long time. It’s running again after I put it back together and it’s a quiet as can be.

    I tried everything to take mine off. Used a shoe lace, straps, and it was not coming off. Ended up breaking the agitator, but the agitator’s bushing was still fused with the shaft gear. Ended up drilling two small holes opposite from each other then I use a chisel to hit across the top, and it split in half and came off the gear.
    Still worth the trouble, new agitator plate $30, new Hub Kit $10.

      @@deborahmartinez9450 I used baling wire (any wire that can fit under the agitator will work) in place of the shoelace that this guy used. It's actually easier to get it underneath the agitator. Just be sure you have enough wire once you "fish" it under the agitator on both sides to pull up with, working each side up individually, little by little. It should pop off with a little force as you work the wire up underneath the agitator.

    By the way, pennies and dimes going through the wash can drop into the gap between the agitator and tub. Without removing the agitator, the coins can be removed using two suitable thin implements - such as the (dull) backside of two paring knives.

    Well, I pulled the cap off, then the nut. Then made two wire hooks to pull the washplate off. Wouldn't budge. Used heavy duty fiber duct pullstring as the shoelace method. Wouldn't budge. Bolted a pulley to the ceiling and tied rope to the pull string. Repeatedly lifting the washing machine in the air and bouncing it, slowly circling the string around the washplate as a wiggle method and hitting the center piece with a rubber hammer = nothing.
    After an hour and a half, the washplate snapped. I was surprised throughout, that you could suspend the washing machine in the air by the washplate alone. So, the lesson here is, you may as well add removing the washplate and just replacing that gear yearly to your list of home maintenance duties.

Tried WD 40, boiling water, shoelace, rope, retractable ratchet straps, hammer, butter knife, NOTHING 😢 So frustrated we want to smash the washer 😅 We’ve even replaced parts that aren’t broken “just in case” and nope!
