Nick November 26, 2013 I have the whirlpool duet washer and the control knob I have is broken. Does the new control knob come with the metal piece to allow the knob to turn the shaft? When I pulled the knob off of the dryer to try it out that is when I realized there was some kind of metal spacer.
Dan September 23, 2013 for Model Number GHW9200LW Whirlpool Duet Washer with Gray control knob: Your part reference page indicates to select item # 23 from the control panel page and there are two choices. A gray knob and a blue knob. The part number for the gray knob is AP3128772. When I enter the washer model number into the panel to check for applicability I am provided with a display that says the part is not compatible. I have a dilemma: Is this the right part or not?
1 Answer Hello Dan! According to the model number supplied the control knob WP8181859 is the correct replacement and will fit your Whirlpool washer. Thanks! Read More...

Larry December 19, 2012 for Model Number Whirlpool Dryer GEW9200LW0 I bought control knob #8181859. When trying to replace it on the shaft it hangs up and w/n push past the ridge on the shaft. The metal piece seems to be hanging up on the ridge. It slips on fine on the washer shaft but not the dryer. Any suggestions would be helpful. Larry
1 Answer Hello Larry, Yes, the metal insert stays in the knob 8181859. You need to check and see if the old insert is stuck on the control knob shaft. If so, pull it off to remove it. Then the new knob pushes onto the shaft of the board. Read More...

Jennifer July 08, 2012 Regarding the replacement knob for the duet....when the knob breaks off, do you have to replace the whole interface or will the new knob simply insert back on? I did not see a protruding rod to attach knob to.
