My dryer wouldn't start, I saw the part on your website after reading comments from other people
I put the nob on the post, one side is flat the rest of the lever on the dryer is round. So I matched up the lever with he inside of the new knob and slid it on . The dryer works perfectly. I ordered it on May 5 th and the nob arrived May 15 th. I guess Georgia is a long way from Arizona. But the part fit perfectly and I am happy. Thankyou.

The Start knob broke off
At first the knob seemed like it would not fit on, but after I sprayed it with WD-40 oil, it slipped with a gentle, steady push

Back Drum Bearing Worn Out
It took about 20 minutes, first I popped the top off using a flat screwdriver in my leatherman and removed the wires on the door switch then two screws holding the front on, and then I removed the drum which took a little longer because the belt tensioner was difficult to release because of limited space. Removed old bearing (ball and socket) and replaced with new one. I then reassembled in reverse order. Working great. . .

Start knob was broken off flush with switch
I turned off the power, unscrewed the 4 screws from the top of the dryer. I then opened it and turned the switch that was in there counterclockwise exactly as utube video said to do. I then took off the two wires from the old switch. The rotary start switch fix right in where the old one was. I put the panel back together, put on the old knob and turned the power back on! It took less than 15 minutes from start to finish! If I can do it anyone can! Joanne Klinkhammer Cecil, Wisconsin

broken spindle which required a total switch replacement.
It took longer to vaccume the lint out of the machine than to change the part.
The part replacement is done without any tools.
My wife could have done it

Timers are made to turn clockwise and break when turned counter clockwise
We are a retirement community and when we opened March '07 the company purchased GE washer and dryers to go in our common area laundry rooms for the residents to use. Because of their age, they will often turn the knob counter clockwise and not the right diirection which breaks the device which is not good. With in 3 days of installation they had broken 2 of the new knobs.
But, the ordering was simple, the shipment was fast and the install was quick for the maintenance tech.

Start switch broke off
I followed the video instructions. I did have to run to the hardware store to pick up a torx screwdriver but otherwise the instructions were perfect. I generally hire someone to do repairs, but this was too easy! I highly recommend doing this yourself as it is definitely a time and money saver. The website made ordering easy and the part arrived quickly!

Drum would not turn at full speed, noisy squeak
Top control panel removed; next used screwdriver to lift up dryer top on each side( the top of dryer is attached by clips on the underside) the dryer front panel has two screws, one on each side of inside front(they are easy to reach and near the top of the inside front panel, after removing these two screws we used screwdriver again to pry off front panel as it is attached also by clips on inside of front panel. At this point there is easy access to the drum where the old belt was removed, new belt put in place; removed small panel on back of dryer to access idler pulley and attached new belt through the pulley; turned the drum a couple of times by hand to check if belt was running true on the drum; problem fixed.
