I received a timer replacement, P/N 33002855 today. I attempted to twist the front top knob in reverse while holding the knob dial indicator as directed. The knob did in fact rotate counterclockwise as suggested. However, the knob did not release from the shaft. It moved out approx. 1/4" but did not release. It felt as if it was spring loaded and not releasing from the shaft.
I contacted the repair forum via telephone. The gentleman confirmed what I had done but was unable to provide any further procedure to release the spring loaded knob. I could not see or locate 2 screws under the outer dial probably because the knob would not release. Any further suggestions?

Thank you very much for the expedited response. I will now be able to remove the old timer upon receipt of the new one. Steve

I have purchased a replacement timer, P/N AP4042974. I need detailed instructions to remove the existing timer. I can not pull off the timer knob from the front of the control panel nor can I release the old timer from inside the control panel. Also the black wiring plug can not be removed from the existing timer even by lifting the holding tab. Thank you in advanced for any help. Steve
