If you notice your washer in not agitating or making a strange noise, then you may need to replace the washplate. Sometimes you get lucky and the washplate is loose and it will pop right off but the majority of the time, you’ll end up having to take some extra steps to get it off without breaking it and adding more stress.

It is critical to let the cleaner sit for as long as possible in order to dissolve the rust and loosen the washplate from the shaft. There is a metal spline inside of the washplate that sits in the grooves of the shaft and if the washplate breaks, you’ll have to do more physical work to remove it so slow and steady wins the race.
