• Attaches to the control shaft to turn the timer or selector
• Provides a secure grip and pointer to choose cycles and options
• Restores proper control when the original knob is cracked or the hub is stripped
• Typical symptoms: knob spins without turning the shaft, feels loose, falls off, or is missing

• Disconnect power to the dryer before servicing
• Pull the old knob straight off; note the shaft shape and orientation
• Align the new knob with the flat/D-shaft and press until fully seated
• If your model uses a separate dial ring or clip, transfer it from the original
