W11158175 Whirlpool Washing Machine Agitator Cam, or Cam-Agit

The Washing Machine Agitator Cam, or CAM-AGIT, is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part designed for Whirlpool washing machines. This component, which includes both the camshaft and agitator, is situated within the wash basket and plays a crucial role in managing various actions during the wash cycle including filling, flushing, scrubbing, and spinning.

Whirlpool, a well-known appliance brand, encompasses several other brands such as Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool manufactures products compatible with Sears-Kenmore and Ikea.

The deterioration of a cam-agit assembly can be attributed to regular wear and tear, impact damage, or the strain from imbalanced loads. Over time, this may lead to the cracking of plastic components or motor failure, which in turn disrupts the normal functioning of the machine.

Indications of a malfunctioning cam-agit assembly are varied but may include challenges in filling or draining water, reduced or absent agitation during the scrubbing phase, unusual noises or vibrations during the spin cycle, and incomplete water drainage post-cycle.

This replacement part is engineered to be compatible with various models from Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore, ensuring a broad range of applicability across different appliances.
