This is a timer control knob for your dryer. The timer is the main part within dryers that is responsible for controlling when the different processes of the drying cycle occur, and it is important that the knob that controls it works properly, too. If you are having difficulty selecting the correct dryer function and mode, this knob may be broken and need to be replaced. To replace this knob, simply pull the old one away and off, and then carefully push the new one on in its place. This OEM knob is sold individually, and does not come with any other parts.

Installation Instructions
Jerry from ST JOHNS, FL
Dryer timer very hard to turn resulting in a stripped knob
My GE electric dryer timer became very difficult to turn and eventually stripped the knob. First I unplugged the dryer. Then removed the upper back panel exposing the timer. There is only one small allen screw plus built in slots holding the timer. There are many wires connected to the timer so I took a picture just in case. I removed the timer and let it hang by the wires. I then pulled one wire at a time and reattached it to the new timer. All went well and the dryer works like it was new again. The most difficult thing was replacing the small screw holding the timer. I then replaced the back panel and attached the new knob. There’s no need for a professional repair person for this problem. From start to finish was less than 30 minutes.
This OEM Timer Knob is a white plastic knob which can be easily installed onto your machine's timer rod, in order to control the timer. If the part breaks off, it should be replaced. Refer to your user manual and model number to see if this part is right for you. It is a three-inch-diameter part that accepts a D-shaped shaft. To replace your faulty knob, simply pull the existing knob straight off the shaft and install the replacement back onto the shaft. No tools are required. This item is sold individually and is not part of a set. The timer knob contains the insert as well as the knob itself.

Needed to replace timer and knob
Took a couple of pictures, removed old timer and installed new one then popped the knob on. Easy as that.
This set (Knob and Clip Assembly, Control Knob, Dryer Control Knob) allows you to replace the knob on your timer if it is damaged or missing. The plastic knob can break around its shaft, or the retainer clip inside the knob can fall out and no longer stay securely on the control shaft. If your knob no longer stays in place, it’s time to place it. The knob is attached to the d-shaped shaft of the control mechanism. This model has a 2 inch diameter, 1-1/14 inch depth, and comes in white plastic.

This timer knob is used to set the dryer cycle by advancing the timer. The plastic can become brittle with age and crack where it attaches to the timer shaft. You will need to replace this part if it slips off the shaft and cannot advance the timer. If it constantly falls off and will not stay on the shaft by itself, it may be cracked or broken and need to be replaced. This model is roughly 3 inches in diameter and made of white plastic. Sold individually.

Jeffery from Waterford, MI
Timer knob cracked twice. Found out the timer switch was bad.
Removed the 3 knobs. They just pull off. Removed 6 screws on the back side of the control panel. The front (plastic panel then just separates from the back). Then look at how the switch is mounted on the plastic panel. There should be 2 small pieces of plastic that holds it in. Carefully twist the switch in the appropriate direction so it comes free. Before you remove any wires from the old switch remember what colors go where ! I used needle nose pliers to remove the connections from the switch. Make the new connections, mount the switch, put the screws back in the panel. BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING. UNPLUG THE ELECTRICAL CORD !!!
The selector knob is what you use to start the dryer. This replacement knob comes with a retaining clip. This is a very easy repair, the only tool you may need is a pair of needle nose pliers. Remove the existing knob by pulling it off, making sure to remove the retaining clip as well. Line up the new knob with the D-shaped shaft and slide it into place.

SAM from ROCK HILL, NY
Replaced broken START knob on dryer.
Slid off the old START knob, then pushed on the new START knob.

I created and printed a label on my computer for use with the time selector dial, which must be set at or beyond 10 minutes, before turning the START knob.

I made a label that says "Minimum" with a red arrow that points past the 10 minute setting on the time selector dial.

My teenage daughter was not setting the time selector dial, to a point past 10 minutes. When she turned the START knob, the dryer would not come on, because the time selector dial was not set past the 10 minute setting.

My daughter had continually twisted the START knob until it broke. I am hoping she will be able to see the large printed label I put on the dryer near the time selector, saying "Minimum" with a large red arrow pointing past 10 minutes.

I am very pleased that I was quickly able to find the exact matching START knob for my dryer and the exact same color, from PartSelect.Com

Bruce from South San Francisco, CA
Frozen timer
1. Remove three screws from back of dryer
2. Tilt top panel forward and disengage
3. Swapped wiring one by one from old timer to new timer
4. Reinstall

The new timer worked so well that even the old, broken knobs could turn it. But I replaced the knobs anyway.

Customer service was great in helping me verify that this timer would work on this dryer (my model number was not listed on the website).

Larry from HICKORY, NC
The main knob insert snapped.
Nothing to it. Just remember to put the insert in the knob, NOT on the selector stem. Line up the flat part of the insert with the flat part of the stem and push the knob in place.

Don NOT ram it on the selector stem. When it's seated, don't push any more. That's all there is to it. It works. If the pointer on the knob indicates the selector is lined up correctly, but it isn't, the problem is the selector, not the knob.
