Remove the control panel screws and carefully pull the panel forward to access the switch. Photograph the wiring harness connections before disconnecting — the rotary switch has multiple terminals and correct reconnection is critical. Disconnect the harness, remove the mounting screws or clips, and swap in the new WW02F00572. Reconnect the harness per your photo, reinstall the panel, and test all cycle positions before returning to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e🔗 Model Repair Pages\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/pages\/contact\"\u003eContact us with your model number\u003c\/a\u003e to confirm compatibility and find your model’s repair page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e💡 Pro Tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pro-tip\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003ePhotograph the Wiring Before You Disconnect Anything:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n  The rotary switch has multiple terminals that control different heat and cycle circuits — one misplaced wire will cause incorrect behaviour after reassembly.
