William D Houston (Harris) , TX June 15, 2020 Appliance: Model GE DRYER (ELECTRIC) The plastic tabs that hold the switches to the back of the dryer backsplash were broke. The cycle and start switches would fall back and not operate properly. Ordered a new backsplash and one new start control knob. The repair is straight forward, disconnect power, unscrew three Phillips screws that secure backsplash, remove switches from backsplash by pushing (any remaining tabs) and twisting counter clockwise. Note that the new control knobs are of better design and have a metal ring around the plastic that fits over the switch shaft. This is where they fail by splitting and not turning the switch correctly. The new band however is just slightly larger than the factory hole in the backsplash for the switch. This required enlarging the hole slightly with a 1/2 inch drill bit. It is plastic a round file would work. Install the switches in the back splash, and secure with three screws, plug in and you are back in business. Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
