Kenmore Elite top-loading washing machine agitator does not properly agitate with load. What might be a suspect cause before I "disable" my wife's clothes washer indefinitely? How can I obtain photos or diagrams to facilitate the repair? I'm willing to tackle the repair myself if not beyond my abilities Appliance was a year old when we bought it used a few years ago so no owners manual.

Kenmore diagrams should be free at Parts & Accessories | Shop & Find Lawn & Garden, Appliance Parts at Sears PartsDirect | SearsPartsDirect.com (http://www.searspartsdirect.com) .

Many times it's the transmission and it's a LOT of work to repair.
