The Rotatory Knob is an OEM part for GE washers. It allows users to easily select and change washer settings like cycles, temperatures, and options with a simple turn. As a control interface component, the rotatory knob provides direct input to the washer's control board.
Causes of a bad rotatory knob can be normal wear from frequent use over time. Exposure to moisture, physical impacts or mishandling, and mineral buildup are other potential causes of malfunction.
Symptoms of a bad rotatory knob include:
- Difficulty selecting or changing washer settings
- Loose, wobbly, or unresponsive knob behavior
- Inaccurate input to the control board causes operating issues
- Cracks, splits, or broken knob components
Compatible with some Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore models as well.
