The model number is 110.26912691. The problem is the timer control knob just spins but does not actually rotate the timer mechanism therefore there is no way to start the washing cycle. I am trying to help someone in a remote location replace the timer. The main problem is that they can't figure out how to remove the control knob. I looked at my own Kenmore washing machine from 1998 and all you have to do is to get access to the back of the timer, then use some needle nose pliers and pull the crescent shaped center pin 3/8 of an inch. Then the knob comes off very easily. I watched a few youtube videos showing one method where you push the knob in and then turn the knob counter-clockwise. That method doesn't seem to work. The knob spins freely and won't unscrew. Here is a photo of the back side of the timer.
Can you tell from the photo what needs to pushed, pulled, twisted, or turned to remove the control knob?
Thanks for your reply.
