SOURCE: Whirlpool top loader washing machine - agitator does not turn
If it does not drain, I'd check the water pump first (for an obstruction - I found a sock in my pump and that fixed my problem) ... see this video - the top is getting to the WM drive shaft (transmission), but it shows you how to remove the pump first: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLPGs2UMUJc&feature=related
If it does drain ... Is it just the TOP part of the agitator not working, or the whole thing (agitator is in 2 parts)? If just the TOP, you probably just need new "dogs" (agitator dogs). Check this out:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5wIN1J70-Y ... it shows you what to do.
If it is the whole agitator that is stuck, that video will show you how to remove it (remove a single bolt) and you can see if there is an obstruction keep the agitator from moving.
If there's no obstruction or the water pump isn't stuck, you might be looking at a new drive/transmission = expensive. Good luck

Hi,
This is not a good news. This is an indication of an internal failure. If the pump has blocked and the thermal overload has gone open circuit,
just remove the blockage from the pump, the module and the pump should
still be okay.
If the pump windings are water damaged, the pump will
quickly overheat and cut off again. The pump must be replaced in this
case. The electronics should still be okay.
However, on most cases, this error message indicates Faulty pump or a faulty pump and board.
Let me know,if needed further assistance.
Hope i helped you.
Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!
