GKSR3140H1WW General Electric Washer - Instructions

I used the piler to take off the old knob then install the new one.

First I removed the softener dispenser then I grabbed the agitator at the bottom and with a tug completely removed it. I took the new part out of the box and lowered it down over the hub in the bottom of the washer and gently pushed it until it snapped in place. Then I re-installed the old fabric softener dispenser and the job was complete.

I laid the washer on its front and removed enough screws to fold the bottom out enough to reach it. I used a wire tie to secure the belt to main pulley and slipped it on the drive. This would have been nearly impossible without the install tool as it stopped the belt from slipping off of the drive. It was simple to turn the pulley clockwise to walk the belt onto it. The whole repair took about 1/2 hour, would have been less if I had used the wire tie at the very beginning.

I just did a google search and found a video that shows to use a zip tie to hold the belt to the big pulley and simply turn the drum and the belt goes right on. Then cut the zip tie off and you are ready to go. Took all of 3 minutes to change the belt from start to finish.

Watched the how to video and did as instructed, super simple repair,

I went to you Tube video found my wash machine and how to remove the knob. I found the teeth on the timer to be warn down so I purchased a new knob. The plate that the timer attached to was broken. I made a metal part and glued it on with Grilia glue. This was a design defect by GE. The new timer fit very well and the wash machine worked like a new one.

removed knobs and popped new knobs on. on the washer, removed the old clip from behind the knob, removed old knob, put on new knob with new clip. very easy. the videos were soooooo very helpful, thanks so much...

Unplug appliance. Use needle nosed pliers to remove clip from behind the knob. Remove knob and replace with new knob. Push in to install the new knob until you hear the "click." There you have it. Easy. Another task completed from the "Honey-Do" list.

worked liked a charm thankyou

Removed front panel, laid washer on backside. Turned pulled while holding with screwdriver. Belt is very tight on pulley and motor.

I removed the control panel and front panel of the machine exposing the water level pressure switch and hose. There was a clog in the hose that once cleaned out (with a shish kabab skewer)the problem was solved I didn't even need the switch which I returned and got a full refund no problem.

Followed the I minute video instruction. Easily removed old knob and simply slipped on new knob -- all in 5 minutes. And It worked -- and saved me around $70 for a service call that would have required me to be home for two visits. The part was only $10, including shipping!!

Followed the video and installed it the way they showed.

Followed the directions on the video and it was a simple repair.
