Whirlpool sells top-load agitator, top-load impeller, front-load, all-in-one combo, and commercial washers in the U.S., and the repair path differs by type: front loaders add a door lock, door boot and pump filter, while top loaders rely on a lid switch and either an agitator or an impeller.

Arizona has no appliance-repair-specific license; work is regulated through Registrar of Contractors classifications, and state law removes the small-job (under $1,000) handyman exemption for any work connecting or repairing appliances on natural gas or propane.

In Arizona, you can check a license with the Arizona Registrar of Contractors Contractor Search or report a problem to the Arizona Attorney General Consumer Protection.
