Washer will fill, spin and empty but will not agitate

The washer fills but there is not agitation. The timer can be heard running but motor makes no sound. At the end of the wash cycle the agitator and tub spin clockwise and the water is evacuated. Through rinse and spin, water is added to the tub and similarly the agitator and tub spin to evacuate the water. At the end of the cycle the clothes are heavy with water, having more water in them than they normally would. This behaviour seems pretty consistent across the different cycles. When spun by hand clockwise the only the top of the agitator turns. when spun counterclockwise both the top and bottom of the agitator turn together. What's wrong?

Appreciate any advice you can give me.

Thank you

Cause 1

Agitator Repair Kit

If the washer won't agitate, replacing the agitator repair kit may solve the problem. The kit contains the agitator components that are most likely to wear out and/or fail. If any of the parts are worn out, stripped, or damaged, replace the kit.

Cause 2

Drive Block or Bell

The drive block connects the washer transmission to the agitator. If the drive block is worn out, the transmission shaft will still move back and forth, but the agitator will only move slightly or will not move at all. Inspect the drive block for damage. If the drive block is worn out, stripped, or damaged, replace it.

Cause 3

Motor Coupling

The motor coupling connects the motor to the washer transmission. If the washer is overloaded, the motor coupling will fail in order to protect both the motor and transmission. The motor coupling can also fail due to normal wear. Inspect the motor coupling to determine if it is broken. If the motor coupling is broken, replace it.

There is absolutely no mechanical sound when this happens as described by Vidia. Mine is the same. I suspect timer or speed control but don't know how to test.
