Brenda B Toano , VA October 28, 2014 Knob had broken off of washer I did not have to remove the top control panel as shown on the video tutorial. Since my knob was broken off, I just pushed the center pin down to release the remaining portion of the knob and quickly attached the new knob. 1 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
