WWA7640SALWW General Electric Washer - Instructions

Lay the washer on its side, unscrew three screw to loose the rotor, put the belt and screw the rotor back.

I bought a timer dial knob

new knob fit onto 'd' shaped spindle. This took about 30 seconds.

Took off the broken ones and pushed on the new ones. Simple, simple

I just pulled the old part out using no tools with minimum pressure and pushed the new dryer knob in with no problems at all within approximately 10 seconds.

We bought this used Hotpoint that was probably one of the original machine created back in the stone-age, it's so old. We've had it 10 months, and it's always had this... burnt rubber stink to it... then one day, it stopped agitating and sounded like a metal bucket of bolts being shaken. We're on a military income with five kids, and the idea of buying a new washer was just... heartbreaking. On a whim, having fixed a washer once before, we opened the front up and painstakingly pulled every last rubber fiber from what used to be the belt. Ordered the part. It shipped quick, arrived quick, and in under a week we were back in business. Someone else had mentioned the needing 1/4" socket, and I was glad I remembered that, because it made is SO much easier.

popped the new one on, and works great.

Replacement knob went on without tools in 1 second.

simply replaced knob, it took less than 15 seconds, thank you.

Got online to PartSelect ordered part online using part find and order system (Sunday Night) received new part on the following Wednesday replaced (less than 5 mins) did the laundry. Thanks PartSelect!!!

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.

watched your video fixed it in a heartbeat I like the site very much also, I looked up the part in a minimum amount of time.I would say it took me 3 minutes total ordering and replacing Loring Gantner

KNob has gears that mesh with the washer. Simply put on the post and slid the clip into the groves on the stem. Pushed it on with needle-nosed pliers.

Gently turned washer over onto its front. Removed bottom metal panel (3 or 4 screws on each side). Removed old belt. Installed new belt. NOTE: The new belt is a tight and perfect fit, therefore it will not want fit on to both pulleys/ rotating discs. I have found the best method is to start the belt on the disc that drives the belt. Then place as much of the belt over the disc that sits below the washing machine drum as is possible(the spinning part)and then turn the belt by hand and the belt should pop on to the disc. If the belt goes on easily you may have the wrong belt as the belt must be tight to achieve the traction necessary for the washing machine to spin. HOPE THIS HELPS!! A screwdriver may be handy in helping to pry on the belt. Good look.

Pried off the remains of the old knob, installed the clips to the back f the new knob, installed nylon clipin knob,, installed knob. I used your regular delivery (not express) and I had the knob in about 24 hours. Thank you!
