knob missing after accident
Dryer blew out of pickup, rolled down highway like a basketball, down an 8 foot grader ditch. Rolled it out of ditch, found two knobs not the third. Put side back on dryer, did some cosmetic work and it seems to work fine. One tough little machine. Slid handle on.

Top knob wouldn't turn to select cycles, broke
Tried using 5 minute epoxy to glue gear portion back to knob portion first. That didn't work so I ordered a new one. Piece of cake to install!! Not even 1 minute....

Overflow when filling
My washer was overflowing when filling. Stopped filling when i unplugged from wall so i knew it was the pressure switch because the tube was fine. It took 28 hours from the time i placed the order to the time it hit my front porch. Got home from work and two minutes later i was washing clothes. Thanks for all the info, Tom

timer knob just spins and would not set the time
I unplugged the washer from the outlet. I pulled out the timer knob and used needle nose pliers to remove the clip from the rear of the knob. I removed the old knob and inspected it. Sure enough, the teeth that engage the timer were worn down to the point where they no longer would engage and turn the timer. I installed the new knob and ghen installed the new clip to secure it to the timer. I plugged the power cord in and tested the washer.....done deal!!!! Parts Select made this job easy and saved me a lot of money by not having to call a service company. The part arrived in two days, it was the exact replacement part, it was good quality. I will do business with them the next time I need to repair an appliance. Great service, great web site.

Washing machine wouldn't drain and agitate
Once I watched the video to replace the pump(Thanks so much for that - big help!!), I disabled the machine to replace the pump, to my surprise found a big clump of fuzzy stuff that was blocking the pump, once I removed that and re-assemble the washer, it started working fine!. Unfortunately, I had already bought the the pump and agitator bell thinking they where both bad, so I'm in the process of returning them now, thanks a bunch! btw - what took so long was I had a mess with the water left in the washer, tip - get all the water out first ;-)

Washer would fill, drain and spin, but would not agitate the laundry.
This top loading washer was purchased new in 2006. It has had a good bit of use and was a rather inexpensive model, but had been working fine. Suddenly the agitator stopped working. First I pulled off the agitator inside the machine, which in this model came off in one piece. In order to do that I grabbed it at the very bottom by pushing my fingers underneath the base, then rocked it from side to side while pulling up on it until it popped off. This exposed the agitator gear that had gone bad. I unbolted the gear and pulled it off. This removal took a bit of effort, and again, we had to rock it back and forth while pulling up on it until it finally came loose. When the new part arrived a few days later, we slipped it onto the transmission stem, and bolted it into place. Then the agitator was put back on and snapped into place. Works as good as new for less than $14, including shipping!

No cold water coming in
Viewed the hot/cold valve. I saw that the cold water solinoid was burned. Ordered new valve and replace old valve. On my washer 4 screws held the switch panel, easy to remove and gave me plenty of room to veiw and do the repair.
