DPSF495EW0WW General Electric Dryer - Instructions

I just had to replace the timer knob after the original cracked after turning it and it cracked. The part arrived the next day even with standard shipping.

Turning the timer on the drier, it felt smooth - no clicking. Rotated to the setting and turned the Start knob - nothing. Pulled the Timer knob off by hand and noticed splits down both sides of the knob. ordered a new knob, pushed it - back in business. Partselect was quick about getting me the replacement part. Thanks

Replaced by hand. Took 5 seconds to repair.

First of all when I ordered the part it was easy and the time it took to arrive at my front door was literally a few days... I took the new knob out of the bag and popped it on where the old one use to be... and done... Thanks for an esy fix...

I removed the top of the dryer and saw that the top two drum slides where gone and the drum bearing itself was damaged I Temporally placed the parts on the drum bearing until I got the new one, that stopped the squeaking noise. All I needed to do was place the part with the hole on the little hook and then sled the other part in its slot.

remove front and top cannover's from dryer.remove plastic inside bearing housing and plastic bearing slides replace worn out bearing slides with new ones. needed 4 bearings direction suggested only two....

Faulty Door switch. Dryer would heat up so I knew it wasn't thermostat or element related.

After some research on the internet, I deduced the squeaking sound in our dryer was due to defective drum glides. I ordered a set of four of the white type, knowing only our model requires four glides, but not knowing there are two types for two locations. After disassembling the dryer I realized I needed more parts - two green slides and a new top bearing assembly. The dryer drum had eaten thru glides and into the plastic assembly. That was the reason for the squeaking noise - metal sliding against hard plastic. I ordered the additional parts directly from the manufacturer to ensure I got it right. After all the parts arrived, the repair was easy and took less than 30 minutes. I actually had my 17 year-old daughter do the work to teach her some skills. I just instructed her and stepped in on assembling the top that was just a bit tricky to put back on. Problem fixed.

Dryer would turn on when you pushed the "on" button, but as soon as you let go, it would turn off. Found the plastic door switch cracked (from slamming door closed). Unplugged the dryer. Unscrewed the two screws inside the top of the door to unfasten the top panel. Took the top panel off. Then unscrewed the two screws on the side to unlatch the front panel. Used plyers to take the 3 wires off the switch and slid the switch through the front of the door. Juat remember where the wires go. Then inserted new switch and connected the wires. Vacuumed out the dryer and reassembled. It took about 20 minutes and was easy! If I can do it, you can!!!

TOO EASY to repair. WORKS GREAT>

Removed small metal band on shaft and installed new knob.Very simple but the video that came with e-mail was helpful as I did not realize the metal band had to come off till I saw the video.

I had found out that reason the timer knob cracked was because the timer switch was turning very tight and caused the knob to crack and realized that dryer also needed a timer switched witch I also ordered from you. I really like how very helpful parts select is with the instructions you send along with the parts I ordered witch will save alot of time. Thanks For your help Ezequiel Escamilla

pulled the old kob off and examined it and replaced it with the one i ordered...

We thought the timer was out on the dryer so I was looking for a new timer when I came across a video on your site about replacing a broken timer knob, so I decided to check the knob first and sure enough it was cracked. This video saved me a lot of time and money. Shipment was quick. Thanks.

I didn't have a part number and went online and matched the part to the picture. It came the next day by FedEx and it took less than 5 minutes to replace the old part with the new part. Really simple and easy!
