Thanks for the advice, EXT. I'll have a look for that setscrew.

If it is a knob that is turned, and some that are not, they don't screw on
but just press on and pull off the stem. Yours may differ, if you have a
knob that turns to time the drying, it must be an economy model, which again
probably indicates the knob just pulls off. Try it gently, but first look
for a set screw, again probably on the bottom of the knob.

Anyone know how to remove the timer control knob on a maytag dryer
about 15 years old? I tried to unscrew it, which did not work. I held
on to the plastic disk under the knob, but I was afraid that if I
turned any harder, something would break. I pulled pretty hard while
rocking the knob, without success.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
