My washing machine will fill but agitates very slowly it will empty and spin but when washing the agitates very little and very slowly
I would check the agitator dogs, as they are called. More than likely they need to be replaced.

The symptoms you describe are often caused by a lid switch malfunction. It may be loose or not making good contact. If you open and close the lid, you should hear a "clicking" sound as the lid switch is activated. If you do not hear the switch, check to make sure the lid strike in still intact. This is a small plastic piece mounted on the lid that pushes down on the switch through a slot on the wash tub opening on the right hand side. If this piece breaks off, it will give the same symptoms of a broken lid switch. Next, check the two mounting screws on the right side of the wash tub opening to make sure they are tight. These are the mounting screws for the lid switch. Sometimes they come loose and the switch does not make proper contact. If you attempt all these preliminaries, and the switch still does not seem to be working properly, replace it. A replacement can be found at searspartsdirect.com. Just type in your model number and the part will be located under the "Top and Cabinet" heading. For instructions on how to replace a lid switch, click on the following link:

Check out this you tube. Had the same problem today. Tipped washer on its side and replaced coupler between motor and gearbox. Parts are about $15
This is a good diagnosis video.

This problem is normally attributed to a defective lid switch. If the lid switch is loose or broken the lid is not detected as being closed and the washer will not operate beyond the beginning of the wash cycle. You need to check the switch to see if it has become loose, or if the lid strike as been broken off. NOTE: If your washer is equipped with one, it will be a small plastic piece located on the lid and activates the lid switch when the lid is closed. Get back to me and let me know what you find. I can assist you in locating parts and provide instructions on how to replace the switch if necessary.

Does the washing machine empty as normal? I am assuming it does and think the brushes on the motor could be worn. Hope this helps.
