- Typical symptoms include won't start, won't stop, light won't turn on/off, or intermittent operation
- Can be checked with a multimeter for continuity when actuated
What's included:
Install notes:
- Disconnect power before servicing; turn off gas or water supply if applicable
- Access the switch, note wire locations, and transfer leads one at a time to the new switch
- Mount securely, ensure the actuator aligns and wires aren't pinched

- Replace if visibly burned/damaged or if testing shows an open or shorted condition
What's included: One resistor Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing
- Access the console/wiring harness and note original wire routing

The timer was sticking to the point where the knobs were stripping out Peter A. • Dallas , OR • December 16, 2014
I unscrewed the 3 Phillips screws on the back of the dryer controls housing, then it folds forward for access to each control switch. the old one popped out, and I swapped the wires using a needle nose pliers, one by one, from the old switch to the new switch. The part was an exact fit, and popped right back into the housing. I screwed the 3 screws back in, pushed on the new knob, and it looks and works like new !

Ordered a knob that was compatible. Worked great only it did not have a pointer telling you what setting you were on. This was solved by using a magic marker once we figured out where to put it.
