Amy O Raleigh , NC August 31, 2016 Appliance: General Electric Electric Dryer DX4500EG6WW Stripped knobs which broke inside of control panel shorted start switch After unplugging the dryer, I removed knobs and control panel. I removed the 3 connectors to start switch. I had to cut and replace one connector due to shorted wire which burnt the connector. I attached new connector and then attached these to start switch. I then remounted all three switches to new control panel and reattached control panel to dryer. Plugged in and started right up! Thank you for the helpful video.

Robert F Palm Beach Gardens , FL March 13, 2018 Appliance: General Electric Electric Dryer DBXR463EG1WW Backsplash electircal control retention clips cracked at rear stem for electrical control fell inward knobs also cracked Unplugged dryer from electric socket... Removed metal protector from rear of backsplash 6 screws ...disconnected all three electrical controls from faulty backsplash..(see videos for correct removal and replacement).... ....removed backsplash....placed new backspash...reinstalled original electrical controls onto rear of new backsplash.....secured backsplash with original metal protector and six screws.....replaced all knobs with new knobs.....plugged in dryer to electric socket...tested dryer ....all functions nominal and working correctly. The real challenge is removing and replacing the 3 electrical controls on the back of the backsplash without breaking the new backsplash.....retention clips on backsplash are plastic and thin and can break off easily as they did on the old backsplash through heavy use of the knobs.
