Crosley Washer won't agitate
Won’t your Crosley washer agitate? The agitator repair kit is the most likely cause. These components can wear, strip, or break, preventing the agitator from moving properly. If the washer is not agitating, inspect the drive block or bell next. A worn drive block may allow the transmission shaft to move while the agitator moves only slightly or not at all. The lid switch assembly can also stop the washer from agitating or spinning, so test it for continuity with the lid closed. Make sure the lid is fully closed and that nothing prevents the lid strike from engaging the switch or latch. If those parts check out, inspect the motor coupling for breaks caused by overloading or normal wear, then check whether the drive belt is broken, loose, or slipping on the pulleys. These common Crosley washing machine agitator problems can often be repaired with basic tools and the correct replacement part. Enter your model number to find the exact agitator repair kit, drive block, lid switch, motor coupling, or drive belt for your specific washing machine.

02 - Crosley Washing Machine Drive Block or Bell
The drive block connects the washer transmission to the agitator. If the drive block is worn out, the transmission shaft will still move back and forth, but the agitator will only move slightly or will not move at all. Inspect the drive block for damage. If the drive block is worn out, stripped, or damaged, replace it.

03 - Crosley Washing Machine Lid Switch Assembly
On some models the lid switch assembly prevents the washer from both spinning and agitating when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer will not spin or agitate. To determine if the lid switch assembly is defective, use a multimeter to test the lid switch for continuity. If the lid switch does not have continuity when the lid is closed, replace it.

04 - Lid Not Fully Closed
On most top load machines the washer will not agitate or spin without the lid being fully closed. Close the lid after loading the washer and ensure there are no obstructions preventing the lid strike from connecting to the lid switch or latch.

05 - Crosley Washing Machine Motor Coupling
The motor coupling connects the motor to the washer transmission. If the washer is overloaded, the motor coupling will fail in order to protect both the motor and transmission. The motor coupling can also fail due to normal wear. Inspect the motor coupling to determine if it is broken. If the motor coupling is broken, replace it.
Highly Likely
06 - Crosley Washing Machine Drive Belt
Inspect the drive belt to determine if it is broken or if it is loose on the pulleys. If the drive belt is broken or loose, replace it.
