Top agitator no longer moved

Difficulty Level:
Easy
Total Repair Time:
15 - 30 mins
Tools:
Screw drivers, Wrench set
Parts Used:
80040
(After viewing You tube videos specific to my make/model washer - Kenmore Model 70):

1) Pried off top cap on agitator with screwdriver.
2) Using wrench extension, removed center bolt
3) Lifted off top + bottom agitator assembly (took a little oomph)
4) Disassembled top from bottom; just pulled apart
5) Agitator dogs fell out (turned out no retaining clip on my model washer)
6) Put in new agitator dogs
7) Reversed above procedures

Did take two tries to put agitator assembly back in. First time didn\'t hold top + bottom together tightly enough - one dog fell out of its retaining groove. Otherwise, pretty easy repair.
