FAQ

This control knob is used on select GE and General Electric washers and dryers. The product title specifically lists compatibility with models GFW450SSM1WW, GFW450SPM1DG, and GFDS170GH0WW. Because knob fit can vary by console design, the safest match is to confirm your appliance model number and part number before ordering.
This replacement is associated with part number WE01X21167 and cross-references WH11X23474, PS11725223, AP5986370, and 4392876. Matching your original part number against these numbers is a good way to verify fitment.
Yes, this part number has been referenced for use on both select GE/General Electric washers and dryers. However, not every washer and dryer knob is interchangeable across all models, so you should confirm your exact model number or original part number before purchase.
Typical symptoms include a cracked or loose knob, the knob spinning without changing settings, difficulty selecting cycles, or the knob no longer gripping the control shaft properly. If the appliance functions electronically but the knob cannot reliably select or change settings, the knob itself is often the problem.
Installation is usually simple and often takes only a few minutes. On many GE/General Electric washer and dryer models, the old knob pulls straight off the control shaft and the new one presses into place by hand. No special tools are typically required, though a plastic pry tool or careful hand pressure may help if the old knob is tight.
Inspect the knob for a cracked center hub or stripped interior where it meets the shaft. Also check the timer or selector shaft on the appliance. If the shaft is bent, broken, or not turning correctly, replacing only the knob may not solve the issue. It also helps to compare the mounting shape on the back of the old knob with the replacement part number WE01X21167 and its cross-references.
The most common causes are plastic hub wear, cracking from repeated use, or stress from forcing the knob when the selector is stiff. On laundry appliances, vibration and frequent cycle changes can also gradually loosen the fit between the knob and the control shaft over time.
