Description
This push-to-start knob replaces a worn or broken control knob on compatible top-load washers and makes starting cycles simple again with a clean, color-matched finish. Restores tactile control for reliable cycle selection. What it does:
- Replaces a damaged or faded push-to-start knob so you can engage the washer's start function easily.
- Provides a secure grip and clear tactile feedback when pressing to start a cycle.
- Helps resolve symptoms such as a loose, cracked, or non-responsive start knob.
- Matches biscuit (light tan) control panels for a cohesive appearance.
What's included: One push-to-start knob (biscuit color). Install notes:
- Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair.
- Most installs are simple push-fit replacements; pull the old knob straight off and press the new knob onto the shaft until it seats.
- If knob removal is difficult, access any retaining clips or fasteners.
