cycle button broken/need to replace/instructions
For model number MGDX655DW0
PartSelect logo
Hi Joseph, thank you for contacting us. The timer control knob for your model is part number PS11756281. To remove the knob, pull straight out and it will come off the shaft. The hole in the back is keyed in the shape of a D. That needs to line up with the flat edge of the shaft on the washer. Line those up, and push it straight on to complete the installation. We hope this information helps!

Wrinkle Control knob came out with shaft attached to it does the control unit need to be changed or just a shaft?
For model number MGDX655DW0

Hi Dan, thank you for getting in touch. If the shaft came out with the knob, then you may have a broken dryer switch, part number PS8746437. You may need to replace the switch. We hope this solves your problem!

Dryer Would Not Turn Off With Door Open
Pryed dryer top open and opened front door. . Unscrewed the 2 retaining screws. Pulled old switch from the wiring harness. Put new switch in place and replaced the retaining screws. Put new switch wire plug into the wiring harness. Before closing top, checked door switch function with dryer on. Dryer cut off when door open and when closed dryer started normally. . . Maint. Note instruction book should warn that letting door slam, which I did on occaision, broke the switch arm. Might save future problems.

Dryer wouldn't turn on b/c door switch broken
It was simple once I figured out what to do:). I removed the 2 screws on the top of the dryer... they were a bit hard to find. Even with the other descriptions on this site. I was removing things I didn't need to. The 2 screws you need to remove are under the LINT COLLECTOR LID. Remove those 2 screws & lift the lid... it will be tight at first. the front of the lid has 2 "catches" in the corners.

The hardest part was getting the door switch assembly to "unplug". We pried it off -- eventually -- & then simply plugged in the new one.

Saved me LOTS of money & was worth the 30 minutes - 1 hour of work.

As I said previously, once you realize how to get the lid up & manage to pry off the plug, that's all there is to it -- easy!

Save yourself time & money & do it yourself!
