How to replace the starter unit
For model number DWLR473ET0WW
PartSelect logo
Hello Steve, thank you for getting in touch. To replace the rotary start switch, remove the screws on the top from the panel. The screws are on the back of the panel. Once you remove the panel, you will have access to all the switches. Remove the knob, and press down on the metal locking tab. Turn the switch counterclockwise. Remove wires from the switch and replace it with the new one. We hope this helps.

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
