Our knob broke on back side on our dryer, I just took the old knob to the appliance repair store and see if they could match it up, they did. God-Bless!
You should be able to purchase a new knob through the website and it is fairly easy to put back on. Check websites such as http://www.appliancepartspros.com/ in addition to the Maytag website
the key is to dismantle the font ofthe knob assy( the small plastic center of knob pulls out) it also acts as a locking ring /clip to hold unto the new timer shaft
Remove and inspect the timer knob for a crack or missing tension clamp.
Carefully place it back on the timer shaft while paying attention to the (D) shape in the knob and the shaft.
If they are aligned correctly notice where the position arrow is pointing, ie; off---run--etc.
You may well need a new knob.
try to unplug the dryer for 5-10 minutes this should reset the board. if not take off the bottom panel and test the resistance of the thermistor ( the tech sheet is in the bottom there or up top)
