Description

This potentiometer is the user control variable resistor that lets the appliance vary a setting (speed, temperature or timer) from the front control panel. Replacing a faulty potentiometer restores responsive, smooth control. What it does:

• Converts knob rotation into an adjustable electrical signal for the appliance control
• Restores consistent setting changes when knob rotation previously produced no response
• Eliminates erratic or jumpy adjustments caused by worn or dirty contacts
• Used wherever a variable user input is required (e.g., temperature, speed, or timer control)

What's included: One potentiometer Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair to avoid shock
• Access usually requires removing the control panel or console; keep track of screws and fasteners
• Note and label any wiring connections before disconnecting for correct reassembly
