I don't understand what happened (Front loading washer door will not open)

[therehastobeaway]

Had a thread going, received some great responses to which I am grateful for, and tried to follow up with some more info/questions and a pic. The pic was downloading and then all of a sudden the thread disappeared. I was able to find it again, but all of the responses were not present, and neither was my last response and the pic I was trying to send. What did I do wrong? Anyway, and most importantly, I want to say thank you for all of the great responses. The timer control knob did unthread from the timer shaft. I had a little bit of difficulty with it because my timer control knob had separated (all of the retaining tangs of the outer portion of the knob had broken off a long time ago) so all I had to grab onto was the small nut encased in plastic that part of the inner portion of the knob. I was able to find a bolt/nut extractor of the right size that took just enough of a bite to rotate it off. Now that I have this machine opened up again, I want to get it back to factory operation with the dispenser working as it should. I'm pretty much OCD like that when I get to repairing something. Can anyone provide me with the part numbers for the dispenser linkage arms that are moved by the timer cam? I really only need the one that is moved by the cam because the projection on it that comes into contact with the cam has broken off. I hate to cobble anything, but I could always drill a small hole for a tiny machine screw and double nut the screw to the arm in such a way that it will function as the projection did that has broken off. Either that, or I could super glue a small piece of plastic in the same location that would ride off of the cam. If there's a better idea anyone can think of, I'm all ears. Thank you again for all of your help.
