Timer is noisey, I know it needs a drop of oil in the timer motor, but I can't figure out how to remove the knob to gain access. There must be a clip, or trick to removal without breaking it.

On the back of the timer there should be a hole. Inside the hole is plastic tab. Reach into the hole with a small flat head screw driver and pull the plastic tab out. The knob will now come off. Here is a service manual. Be very careful with oil around the timer; if it gets on the contacts you will not be happy. http://www.servicematters.com/m...ibrary/docs/16023083.pdf
