It is possible there is a problem with the knob, but more likely the problem is with the control panel.

You are going to have to take off the top, then remove the dispenser, remove the screw inside the dispenser recess and the other four screws that hold the control panel to the cover, and then release the tabs that hold the control panel to the cover.

If the problem is with the control panel I suggest getting a new machine. It is an expensive part and while these models are great when they work, this particular model is somewhat unreliable and very difficult and expensive to diagnose and repair.

Sorry not to have better news.
