🕒 AMI Exact Replacement Timer Control Knob WE1M964 with Reinforced Metal Ring for GE Dryer - AP4980845 PS3487132 Review

This grip is built the way equipment manufacturers should. I kept blowing through the original manufacturer's buttons because the plastic holding it against the timer shaft breaks very easily if you're not very careful. Not in our house. I'm so glad I found this.

Gave it 5 stars anyway because it fits perfectly and is well made, especially for less than a tenth of the price Maytag was trying to charge me! The problem is that our Maytag dryer is old so the D shape fits over the original handle. So the super quick fix was to tape the included painted arrow and make my own mark where it should be on our dryer. Viola is perfect!

I have a fairly old GE dryer that broke the timer setting and I couldn't change the drying cycle setting. Without being able to mount the handle, the dryer cannot be switched on. We resorted to the help of pliers but were afraid of damaging the metal part on which the handles slide. I ordered this part from Revain - different color but they told me it matched my car. It arrived within 2 days and was a lot cheaper than the local parts store wanted. Very happy customer here!

The grip looked great and had a fantastic steel reinforcement ring around the handle and it seemed to fit my new GE timer perfectly. However. Bushing size "d" was the correct diameter, but the flat part was too far from the diameter. In other words, it was sloppy on the new timer wave. I checked the old unbroken handle and it fit very well. So I removed the steel ring from the new pin and pressed it against my old pin. Voila! It was cheap enough and I was happy enough with just the ring to keep

The Prior control knob that I ordered from another carrier broke after a year and a month. This one comes with a metal ring around the outside of the inner tube where you need to insert the dryer handle into the pole. It wasn't tight, I had to wrap tape around the stem and insert a pin. Works quite well so far. Hopefully this metal ring will provide extra strength and the plastic part won't break from fatigue stress when the handle is rotated. I'll report in the future if that breaks too. You…

When the original grip broke I replaced it with one of those aftermarket grips that lasted a few months. So I bought another one. As with other reviews, I found the knob on the timer shaft was loose and not turning the timer. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the shaft on the timer was worn out. Any pin I put in there wouldn't fit snugly and wouldn't trigger the timer. I replaced the timer with an OE timer and handle (I had read reviews of non-original timers and how easily they broke and…

Bought to replace the original handle in May, by June I was already seeing signs that the handle might not last long. I bought it because of the reinforced metal ring around the D-hole, because the D-hole ended up cracking on the original handle. The part arrived, bag pulled out and it fit perfectly, the dryer is back in action. In late June, I noticed that the selection arrow on the button didn't always match the option or time I wanted. When I set the dryer for 30 minutes it ran 40, the…

I just had a couple of these handles delivered to me a few hours ago and I have the installation on my new timer assembly for my Hotpoint dryer (made by GE , the old part said GE). The old timer had a plastic D-shaped shank that became rounded when the old handle broke. When I put everything together and slipped this handle onto the shaft of the new timer, it turned out that it was too loose. The old knob, even though snapped, was still much tighter on the shaft so I know the timer itself is up
