The knob which pulls out/pushes in and turns the dial just spins. I just ordered a new knob, Dial and Timer from Sears online but can not figure out how to remove the knob and dial. I don't see any set screws, pins or snap rings holding them to the shaft of the timer. Thanks in advance, Robert

This will get you to the two screws that hold the timer on to the console. The second method has a tab on the back of the timer inside the console. Pull it out and the knob comes off.

I had to hold the shaft in the back of timer because it was spinning as I tried to unscrew the knob. The knob unscrewed by turning it counter clockwise. In case anyone else has to replace their timer or knob or dial, here are the numbers: Timer: 3954810, Dial: 3949428, Knob: 3948416. Again, thanks for the answer, I would never have figured it out on my own. RFaust
