Simpson Genesis agitator only goes one way?

Simpson Genesis only goes one way Paul in perfect conditionj
Brian, June 2015
You need to listen to the sound when it is in agitate cycle. If it runs one way & then sounds like it is trying to go the other way but jamming then you have a clutch or gearbox problem or brake arm has not locked gearbox to stop it rotating. If on the other hand the sound only goes one way & the reverse is silent then you will probably find no power is supplied on the reverse movement. That would be either a timer fault or the electronic motor controller in the panel is faulty.
