DBB3300GA0WW General Electric Dryer - Instructions

replaced in same position was previously

removed old knob, cleaned surface under knob, sprayed metal knob on dryer with wd-40, put new knob on. useing the wd-40 makes the knob turn a lot easyer.

I followed the directions from the previous post. It was much easier than described. I got the part, removed 4 screws, removed the top, pulled the front and replaced the part. It was all together again in 15 minutes. Dryer sounds great again! I'm so glad I didn't call a repair man!

The repair was extremely easy. Just pulled the broken knob off and replaced with the new one. No tools required.

Before ordering from PartSelect I had checked both the original vendor and a local repair shop. The vendor had nothing, said try online. The shop said they could order it for twice the price.

PartSelect sent exactly what I needed pronto. I pulled off the old knob. I pressed on the new knob.
Done.

The repair was pull old one off and replace new knob. Receiving the new knob was amazing. Ordered one afternoon and received new part by 11 am next morning at regular shipping. You can't ask for anything better than that. Thank you

Looked on-line for new knob. At GE website, part was $20 + shipping. On Parts select, part was $14 + shipping. Ordered on Friday, part delivered to house on Saturday. Installed in less than a minute. It worked. Wife is very happy. Life is good again.

very simple. watched video on line. enclosed instructions good

When the part came in the mail. I opened the packaging & just pushed the knob on to the metal post of the dryer. Voile that easy!

First I removed the 2 screws that hold the lid down. Then I pulled the lid off. Then I removed the 2 screws that hold the front of the dryer in place. Then I lifted the drum a little and pulled the front cabinet out a little so I could see the drum slides. I removed the bad drum slides and installed the new ones. I then put everything back together and turned on the dryer. The squeeky noise was gone.

pulled off the top, pulled off the front then replaced the plastic that was supporting the front side of the drum. fairly easy to replace although the little plastic 'slides' (you need 4 of them)

Initially purchased just the plastic slides, but when I opened the dryer I found the top drum bearing was smashed and the plastic was basically gone in a whole section, so I then ended up ordering the bearing as well. If you hear the loud squeaking, just buy the top drum bearing and the 4 slides (two white and two dark green). It is an easy repair and the squeaking sound is gone.

took off top of dryer, took out 2 screws so front of dryer could be removed, replaced bearing,slides and felt seal

Took the top of the dryer off by removing two philips screws in front. Removed two screws holding the front of the dryer on. Pulled the front out enough to reveal the worn drum slides. Replaced them. Reassembled.

Silmply replaced the knob. This is the second knob I have replaced on this dryer. This time I bought two for when it happens again. Not sure if it is too much rension in the timer or too little strength in the knob, but is a design problem.
