Due to weather exposure, the handle fatigued and broke in several parts.
You simply pry the old handle off with a flathead screwdriver, and then line up the new handle and snap it into place. It took less than 30 seconds! A breeze.

brocken knobs
Very simple just put the new ones on to replace the old knobs that broke. Thanks for the quickness of getting our parts to us. So nice to not have to use a tool to turn the dryer on. Very happy with the pricing and quickness it was delivered to us.

plastic dryer handle was broken during move
Used a flathead screw driver to pry broken handle out and snapped new handle right back in. Took no time at all. It was great and to top it off, I received the ordered item within 2 working days! Thanks so much. (I do not really know the age of the dryer as it belonged to my Mother who has been relocated into Hospice).

Broken drive belt
Raised the lid, removed 2 little screws,slipped the front panel off, disconnected the safety switch, vacuumed everything, slipped on the drive belt and reversed my way out. It was way more easy than filling a grease gun!

Broken Dryer Starter Knob
I pulled off the broken knob and black fitter that was originally on the plastic piece. I didn't even need pliers. Then I replaced the new rotary knob under 5 seconds. Now the dryer works like new.
