John February 08, 2018 for Model Number MEX732CAS3 I got a replacement start switch (electrolux 134399700). The original had threaded mounting holes. The replacement does not (holes are unthreaded). Are there self-tapping screws for the replacement switch or is the switch defective.
1 Answer Hello John, While we cannot verify this part is correct for your model because we are unable to look up import models, (shown to be a Canadian model), this design switch never has threaded holes when new. The existing screws should thread in with no problem for the parts installation. Read More...
John Schnei June 19, 2017 for Model Number kenmore 417.97862791 how to install Kenmore/frigidaire-switch-134399700 how do get the panel out? how do you take of th ewash knob? any videos out there for this project on a stackeble washer/dryer
1 Answer John, The shafts of the knobs are D shaped and pull straight off. The timer knob is held on the shaft by a locking rod that extends to the rear of the timer. To remove the knob disconnect power to the machine, open and remove the control panel and using a small screwdriver pull the locking rod backward(out) to release the knob then pull the knob off. To access the controls remove the access panel. the panel is held in place by two screws and two tabs on the upper corners of the panel. Remove the screws and pull up and out to remove the panel. Remove the four screws two on each side holding the console to the dryer section side panels. Carefully pull down and out on the console. The console will now hang on the wires and tube to the pressure switch. Disconnect the wires from the start switch, remove the two screws holding the switch to the control mounting bracket, and pull the switch out the back of the console. Reverse the procedure and check the dryer for operation. Read More...

Lynette February 09, 2015 for Model Number GLGH1642DS1 We have a stackable washer and dryer and the knob is broken. I am somewhat handy. Is this something the average person can fix?
1 Answer Hello Lynette, Since the dryer timer simply presses on and the washer knob screws on with standard right handed threads, you should have no problem changing the knob. Read More...

Marshall March 21, 2012 for Model Number glgh1642fs 3? I think I need the switch ap3844434 the turn on control does not snap back,So I took the lower panel off and the silver panel, but the exhaust tube is there. So I took 2 screws out and "worked it out of there" But I still think I need to take off the control panel to unscrew the switch?
1 Answer Hi Marshall. Yes, 134399700 is the start switch. There is no need to remove the control panel. If you remove the panel under the control panel and the large silver panel behind it, you can access the start switch and replace it without removing the control panel. Thank You. Read More...
