Broken Timer Knob
The fact that the knob on a 3yr old dryer broke was harder to deal with than the repair. It was lift the old knob off (it was very loose) and snugly slide the new knob on. I can get back to reading my book and my wife thinks I'm a hero win-win!

Drum squeaked and occassionally would not turn, even though the motor ran.
I ordered and replaced the front and rear bearings, including the slides that go on the front bearing. Most of this was un-necessary; replacing the slides would have been sufficient, and much easier to do. Two of the old slides were worn completely away.

Dryer stopped running and wonldn't start.
I ordered to timer knob. Its was delievered in two days. When I received it, My bother and I looked at it expecting more than what we received, We said to each other this isn't going to work. I told my bother to go on and try it anyway. He took the old timer knob off and then removed a clamp at the base of the timer knob fitting. He then placed the timer knob back of the fitting. Turned the dryer on and it started right up. We were both shocked that it ran and that it was so easy to fix. Thank you PartSelect. Great customer service. I have already ordered a part for his refrigerator! Can't wait till we get the part. I'm sure its going to work just fine.

The dryer time setting knob.
My husband snapped the new know easily into place.
I was tired of the process after having the know break three times in less than three years which makes me think there is a design flaw.

The timer knob on my dryer broke
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!

Dryer Would Not Heat And Dry For Set Time
The knob had cracked on the back side. All you had to do is pull off the knob and slide the new one on. Pretty foolproof.
