Why is my washer making a scraping noise when it agitates?

Why is my washer making a scraping noise when it agitates?

Washer was working great until we moved, and now ever since then it makes that noise when it is in the agitates? We did not lay it on it's side, we used a dolly to move it to it's new location. I really need the help to fix! Everything else runs fine spins great and filled fine, just happens when it washes the clothes.

There is a plastic cap on top of your agitator inside there are plastic "dawgs" that are rigid like a gear which grips the shaft when agitating. anyway they may have been bumped loose.there should be three or four in there. use one of those links that old turkey put in his reply to show you how to replace them.

We had the same problem moving with dolly. We got great advice. We took off the front panal, banged it down with hammer, problem solved!!! Thank you so much!
