A picture of the machine and model information can be found in the link below.
If this knob is going to be as difficult to locate as Gordon advised in the linked thread, and if you're only going to be using the dryer temporarily, I suggest finding any old knob that will fit on the post and doing your best to figure out the corresponding cycles so you can eventually add a few helpful marks on the knob. Even a crude fix like that would be a significant upgrade from using pliers. CLICK HERE TO GO TO rp2813's LINK |

You all have truly been helpful. I appreciate everyone who took time out on both my posts to offer commentary. |

I can help you. I have the dryer. There are 2 cycles:
Regular ~ 100 minutes ~ Turn left ~ 20 40 60 80 100 Permanent Press ~ 80 minutes ~ Turn right ~ 80 60 40 20 If you're in the off position, you can turn the spoke about an inch to the right, and you'll be at the 80 minute mark of the PP cycle which is the same as normal except that it's shorter and ends with a Wrinkle Guard which buzzes regularly during the last 20 minutes or so, and cuts the heat earlier. Then, for your next load turn the spoke left about an inch again and you'll be in the normal cycle at the 100 minute mark. Each inch on the dial comprises 20 minutes of drying time. OR DO THE OPPOSITE if your last load was Permanent Press, again which you'd know by all the buzzing. Do you see what I'm trying to convey? It's a little hard without the dial ;'D Hope I was clear and that this helps. Later this week, I could get a pic for you, maybe. It's a nice big chrome and brown dial with gold graphics, hefty, full-fisted, and satisfying. I hope you are able to find one. Aren't these wonderful dryers? Every thing comes out so soft and fluffy. ANOTHER WAY: Using your pliers, turn till you hear a click, then turn for the second click. If there is a longer space between clicks, you've hit OFF in Permanent Press; if the space is short, you've hit OFF in Normal. That should do it, Britt. |
