✅ Cross Reference Information
Common Symptoms
- Selection will not set because the knob is cracked, stripped, loose, or no longer engages the switch stem.
- The washer may not start when the knob cannot properly engage the control.
- The knob may spin freely, fall off, or fail to indicate the selected cycle accurately.
Check Before Replacing
- Disconnect power before inspecting the knob or control panel.
- Visually inspect the knob for cracks, a damaged hub, looseness, or missing internal engagement features.
- With power disconnected, gently check whether the knob is firmly seated on the switch stem and whether it slips independently of the stem.
- If the knob appears intact, verify whether the underlying switch stem rotates with the knob; do not force the control or disassemble the panel unless the model-specific service instructions permit it.
