DBL333GB5WW General Electric Dryer - Instructions

Had a slight problen at first getting the part that I needed. Because of not knowing the model # for the washer/ the label was still on the lid of washer but the # was completely washed off. I thought I needed the complete timer/knob. I am 80 and a neighbor showed me what the problen was. Almost all of the plastic teeth were worn off.I finally found the Model # on the original purchase bill then order the knob only. My husband (86)thought I should have soneone put the new knob on but i pulled out the old clip and the new knob slipped right on. Thanks to all of your staff that helped me. Wonderful service.

I took the visegrip pliers off the d shaft and simply slid the new knob on with ease. I never doubted my abilities!

Remove the top of dryer, remove switch after two wires removed. Snapped in new switch and hooked wires and then put top back on.

The old knob broke off & was no longer able to turn the pin to start the dryer. I simply slid the new knob onto the pin & it worked like new.

Took the knob and clip off the dryer and stuck the knew knob on!

Top control panel removed; next used screwdriver to lift up dryer top on each side( the top of dryer is attached by clips on the underside) the dryer front panel has two screws, one on each side of inside front(they are easy to reach and near the top of the inside front panel, after removing these two screws we used screwdriver again to pry off front panel as it is attached also by clips on inside of front panel. At this point there is easy access to the drum where the old belt was removed, new belt put in place; removed small panel on back of dryer to access idler pulley and attached new belt through the pulley; turned the drum a couple of times by hand to check if belt was running true on the drum; problem fixed.

Fortunately I watched the video on how to change the knob. I may not have noticed that the metal clip part of the old knob was still attached. Once the old part was removed, the new knob slid right into place.

All I did was stick the knob on. How easy was that! Knob works every time. Very pleased with the part.

Remove & rplace switch

very simple my husband put it on in no time

Removed and replaced knob.

I first checked the heating element by peeking through the peek hole in the front to see if it was turning on. The heating element turned on but gas failed to flow. Next, I checked all sensors including the fuse, they were all fine. This points to the solenoid as the cause of the issue. So I replaced the solenoids and the problem solved. I did watch the YouTube video on how to check the sensors and replace faulty parts.

Removed top of dryer, took screws out of back of dryer, pulled drum off front of dryer, removed old belt and slid new one in place. Reattached drum to front and slid belt in place only to find it was the wrong size. Called an appliance repair man, he said happens more ften than not.

Simple replaced switch

I took the top and front off the dryer. I then took the screws out of the drum and removed the drum. I then took the old bearing out and put the new one in.
