Phil,
good call, you can verify this by visualy checking your break package,
take off the toe kick and look in the milk stool
the brake for this model is three pads that slide into the brake wheel
and engage to lock the hub on aggitate,,,,
i am including a parts list and pictoral break down
check your pads,,,, its an easy rerair
you will need a 3/8 ratched open end
each pad has two bolts
you can remove and repalce all with out removing the tub
it just takes some time and paitence
http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?model_id=22189&diagram_id=653315#d653315

9-10 times you will not need to repalce the rotor

hope this helps

How to add fabric softner to the amana washer with locking lid

Check and see if there is a cup in the top of the agitator. Some machines have you put it there, turning back and forth during wash doesn't bother it, but the spin to empty the wash water causes the softener to go out through slots in the top of the cup and be held in the agitator. when it stops the softener drains into the tub, ready for the rinse cycle.

Sounds like a jet plane taking off when it spins, I think I got in 2003 Also the top of the agitator wont stay on

Has it always sounded like a jet plane? If it has. Then who installed your new washing machine didn't disengaged the two counter weight inside the washing machine. There two concert block or plastic block inside the washing machine. Each block is attached to one end of counter blanching bar which has some spring attached to them. During manufacturing these weights are tied down for shipment. During installation the ties are removed then the washing machine can be leveled.

Counter weights are used to off set the uneven load in the tub. That way the washing will not start walking in the house. Side load washing machine use a plastic donut the fits around the drum and it fill with fluid for counter weight.

Now the cap of the agitator, it broken. The locking tabs are broke off. needs to replace. I hope you said the top of the agitator and not the agitator is coming out. If it is, you got major problems. stewbison

Speed queen top load washer does not agitate properly

you need to see if the motor turns one direction during wash and the other during the spin. If so, your gearbox is faulty and needs replacement. If motor only goes in one direction at all times, then very possible, the timer is faulty.

Washer make a clicking noise

Zoobs, you could have something stuck under the agitator. The agitator will pull straight off. Grip it on each side and pull up hard, but don't hit yourself in the face. If that don't work, try slipping a belt under it and pull. Check for something caught under it. Another possibility could be the nylon suspension rod socket supports in the back. They will make a noise during agitation if they are dry. Put a little 3 in 1 oil to quite them down. Take the front panel off and check the pulley and belt, see if anything is out of whack. I also often find the motor support hitting the bottom panel during agitation making noise. Take the front panel off and observe during agitation. See if the support is striking the bottom. If so, just bend the bottom panel down. Catriver..post back.
