    Thank you so much for this video and giving the websites to get the parts! We don’t have the same dryer but it helped us find the part and have a better understanding of what actually broke 😅

    Thank you very much for the help, my friend. I was able to fix my dryer in less than an hour. Quickly, I bought the part at a nearby store and changed it super easily with the tutorial

    Loosen the bolts completely. Gently tap the two bolts down with mild force to release the connectors and then it should be free

    Is there a way to manually manipulate the broken knob so you can temporarily use the dryer in the meantime while waiting to get the part?

    I'm currently waiting on part also. We jammed a steak knife in where it broke off to turn, honestly

    I dont recommend this because there are electrical parts that can be hazardous, but I ran a big screw in the hole and used that to turn the dial until the part arrived.
