How to Change the Agitator In a Hotpoint Washer
- 1). Move your GE Hotpoint washer away from the wall, then disconnect the power cord from the AC wall outlet.
- 2). Open the lid to the washing machine. Place hands into the washer and grasp the agitator.
- 3). Pull the agitator all the way up and out of the inside of the washer. You may also need to slightly turn the agitator as you lift it.
- 4). Inspect the agitator for any cracks or other damage, and replace the part if necessary.
- 5). Place the agitator, new or old part, back into the middle of the washer over the motor.
- 6). Turn the agitator clockwise to make sure it locks into place. Reconnect the power supply to the wall outlet.
