 It sounds as if the shaft for that inner timer knob has broken - you may be able to glue it but you'd have to carefully remove the timer knob and then pull off the broken part from the timer shaft. In a worst-case scenario, you may be able to find a replacement knob - if you have an appliance repair shop that also sells reconditioned machines near you, try them first. | ||

Inner Knob The inner knob still pulls out and pushes back in but doesn't seem as connected as it was initially. Does anyone have any guidance on how to investigate? I'll be REAL careful! | ||

Broken Timer On A WP BD Compact Portable Washer Hi, You need another timer, although you may be able to still use the washer as long as you either push the timer knob in [ or unplug it ] when you manually advance it to set the cycle.
If you are really clever you may be able to fix the sheered part in the timer.
Good news is it is easy to replace the timer on these washers, you just use a putty knife to release the top at the front then remove the timer knob and dial the two screws behind the dial and lift out the timer and unplug from the harness.

Raising the top on a portable whirlpool belt drive washer
The clip that needs to be pushed in with a putty knife is about 1 1/2 inches in from each side use a strong putty knife press in while you were pulling up on the top from inside the lid opening.
