Description

A small plastic thimble that fits behind a push-style control button to hold it squarely in the housing and restore smooth button travel. Replaces a worn or missing retainer to improve button feel and alignment. What it does:

• Secures push-style control buttons in the panel to stop wobble or uneven movement
• Restores proper button travel so controls depress and release cleanly
• Helps keep the button centered in its bezel for consistent operation
• Addresses symptoms like buttons that fall out, sit crooked, or don't return smoothly

What's included: One plug button thimble (single) Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Remove the knob or access the control panel per your model's service instructions
• Press the thimble into the button housing until it snaps or seats fully; then reinstall the button/knob
