Used a screw driver and needle nose pliers to remove clip from behind the timer knob. Took 2 minutes to remove clip, i admit it was a little tricky but once you get a grip on the clip very easily removed. Replaced with new knob, old knob gear was completley stripped . put the new clip on and presto, Like brand new.A normal service call would of ran me 45.00 just to tell me what was wrong with the machine.

I used a pair of needle nose pliers and a screw drive to remove the clip holding the knob on its shaft. The new knob came with its clip already in place, so it "popped" right on. I ordered the compression ring in error and it it was not needed

I require the "collar ring" which sits behind the cycle dial on this model
Chris Boyle Profile
Hi Frank, thank you for your question. There is no collar ring. There is a compression ring which is the part that you have questioned on. If that is not the part that you are looking for then the ring you are looking for would either come with the timer knob or the dial itself. I have linked the parts below for you. I hope that helps. Good luck with your repair.

If the knob is loose and spins when the washer is in use, you will need to replace the knob, part number PS271124, the clip, part number PS270835, the compression ring, part number PS271609, or the dial, part number PS269445. If you would like to place an order for one of these parts, customer service is open 7 days a week and anyone will be happy to assist you. Please feel free to give us a call. We look forward to hearing from you!
