Description

This replacement blower switch knob gives your appliance a usable, easy-to-turn control for fan/blower speed selection and restores lost or damaged control styling. It's a direct-fit control knob that snaps onto the factory shaft to replace a cracked, stripped, or missing knob. What it does:

• Provides a tactile grip for turning the blower/fan speed selector
• Restores clear position selection when the original knob is worn or broken
• Prevents slipping on the shaft caused by stripped or damaged knobs
• Helps avoid accidental changes by fitting securely to the control shaft

What's included:

• One replacement blower switch knob

Install notes:

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid electrical hazard
• Pull off the old knob straight from the control shaft; align and push the new knob onto the splined shaft until fully seated
• Do not force or hammer the knob onto the shaft; confirm correct orientation of the spline
• If the control shaft is damaged, replace the shaft assembly rather than forcing the knob
