When you pull the knob to select the desired cycle, the knob spins freely. It won't engage the dial that actually clicks and selects our desired cycle. Any advice would be helpful. Sincerely, Mark Kasimoff Mark@racegrooves.com

Sorry, you are correct. When you push it in, it won't turn the dial. Interestingly enough, we found an old part on the shelf. We don't remember replacing the part but it is possible. The one on the shelf is Part no 3351118 the on currently on the machine is Part no 3351118 Well, I guess we have replaced it before! I did a parts search and it gave me this page: http://www.repairclinic.com/referral.asp?R=154&N=1105 Do you believe that I need to replace the whole unit Or just this part?   Last edited on Tue Jan 3rd, 2006 11:20 pm by

I have the same problem.  I wanted to remove the timer to see if I could fix it or replace it.  I took the panel apart as far as I could, including separating the adhesive that holds the bezel to the frame with all the electrical parts mounted on it, but I still couldn't figure out how to get to the screws that hiold the timer assy to the panel.  Does the knob come off, or have I missed something else?  How do I remove the timner assy? Thanks!

Push in the knob.  Hold the shaft as it sticks out the back and unscrew the main knob.  Other dials then pull off exposing the mounting screws . . . Maybe this will help someone else that is (was) as clueless as I. Dan

But the metal piece that you are referring to hold onto around the back is nested inside of a plastic piece, and I can't get a good hold on it to keep it fro spinning and undo the knob on the front. Suggestions?? Dan
