Common Symptoms
- Knob is loose, cracked, or spins without reliably changing the selected setting.
- The dryer may not start after a setting is selected.
- The timer may not advance when the control selection cannot be set.
Check Before Replacing
- With power disconnected, inspect the knob for cracks, a damaged hub, looseness, or failure to stay engaged with the switch post.
- Do not force the knob; gently check whether turning it changes the selected control position normally.
- Confirm the appliance model number and compare the installed knob and its switch-post engagement before ordering, since similar-looking knobs can differ in shape or fit.
Pro Tip
A faulty knob can mimic a switch or timer problem; inspect the knob-to-switch-post engagement first, but do not assume the knob is the sole cause of a no-start or timer symptom.
