KENMORE 110 SERIES DIRECT DRIVE WASHER Wont Agitate

Washer Lid Switch Assembly

The lid switch is a critical safety interlock that completes the electrical path to the drive motor. In this model, the plastic actuator lever often snaps or the internal contact points undergo carbon fouling, preventing the machine from transitioning from the fill cycle to the agitation cycle. Without this continuity, the motor will not receive the 120V signal required to initiate the wash stroke.

Motor Direct Drive Coupling

This component serves as a mechanical fuse between the motor and the transmission, consisting of two plastic hubs and a rubber vibration dampener. Over time, the plastic 'pips' shear off or the rubber spider disintegrates, resulting in a total loss of torque transfer. The motor will audibly run during the agitation phase, but the agitator will remain stationary due to the severed mechanical connection.

Agitator Directional Cogs (Dogs)

In dual-action agitator designs, these four plastic pawls engage the upper agitator barrel with the lower base. These cogs are designed to wear out over thousands of cycles; once the teeth are rounded off, they fail to grip the inner splines of the agitator. This leads to a specific failure mode where the base of the agitator may pulse, but the top fails to rotate and circulate the laundry.
