Obviously, I have no idea what to do next. I can order a new knob for about $20 (Alaska rates, yay) but I don't know how to get the stem to turn. If I unplug the dryer, how do I access the inside of the panel to see what the problem is? It would seem to me that if there are gears inside maybe they are jammed somehow. Any ideas? Any help appreciated. My clothes are wet. I am very unhappy.
