Easy to order and easy to install
The washer control knob was exactly as shown in the photo. That was a big help to me. It was snap to order, arrived in less than 2 days and went on in a sec. Very pleased. I won't hesitate to order from PartSelect in the future.

Control knob broke - because entirely plastic, turning interior metal selection rod
Pulled off the broken knob. Fairly disgusted with Whirlpool for not bothering to put a metal / aluminum sleeve inside to avoid the exact breakage I experienced. Part Select, however, had the part, got it to me exactly in the time frame I asked for and it was the correct part. I would definitely use Prat Select for any such need.

Belt Wheel was broken at axle. Terrible noise.
Removed the top and back of dryer with screw socket. It was quite easy. Then, I removed the broken wheel by releasing the tension spring. I replaced the wheel. The toughest part was re-threading the belt. But, even that was simple. The dryer runs smoothly and quietly again!

cracked burner know
If you remove knob and sleeve remains, you have to use needle nose pliers to remove. Pull straight up, don't wiggle back-and-forth too much. If you put too much pressure on glass-top, it can crack. Prying is DANGEROUS on glass-top stoves.
