When the washer is operating, the agitator rotates back and forth, causing the clothes to rub against each other and against the agitator itself, which helps to loosen dirt and stains. If the agitator does not move or moves erratically while the washer is running, then this is a sign that it is faulty. You may also hear unusual noises such as grinding or rattling and notice that your clothes are not distributed evenly around the agitator during the wash cycle.
