GE Dial Assembly WH11X10049

When a control dial needs replacing, the important first step is identifying the part number rather than guessing from appearance. The GE WH11X10049 is described as a genuine replacement dial assembly.

Its listing gives a model number and package measurements, which help identify what is being supplied. They do not confirm which appliances it fits.

That distinction matters: this is a replacement component, not a complete control panel or an appliance.

Key specifications

The manufacturer model number is WH11X10049, and the part is described as a genuine replacement. The listed package measures 3.5 inches high by 1.5 inches long, with a package width of 2.5 inches. Those are package dimensions, not confirmed measurements of the dial assembly itself.

No compatible appliance models, installation instructions, material, colour or included accessories are specified. If you are matching a worn or missing dial, compare the part number on your existing component or appliance documentation before ordering. A similar-looking control does not, by itself, establish compatibility.

Who it’s for

This part is aimed at someone who has already identified WH11X10049 as the replacement they need. It may suit a repair where the dial assembly is the specific component being replaced and the rest of the control area is being kept. It is a more targeted approach than replacing a larger assembly when only the dial part has been identified as necessary.

It suits you if you can verify the model number against the part you are replacing. It won’t suit you if you are still diagnosing the fault, need a complete control panel, or are choosing by appearance alone. The listing does not name compatible appliances, so fitment cannot be confirmed from these details.

Everyday use

In practical terms, this is a small replacement part for a repair rather than a general-purpose accessory. For example, if a dial is missing or damaged, you could use the WH11X10049 model number to compare against the original part before setting aside time for the repair. The package measurements may help with handling or storage, but they should not be used to judge how the assembled dial will sit on the appliance.

There is little information here about how the part installs or what tools the repair might require. If you have not confirmed that the dial assembly itself is the issue, diagnosing the appliance first is a safer next step than ordering a part based only on the symptom.

Before You Decide

Is WH11X10049 the manufacturer model number? Yes. The listing identifies WH11X10049 as the manufacturer model number.

Is this described as a genuine replacement part? Yes. That is how the listing identifies the dial assembly.

Do the listed dimensions describe the dial itself? They are package dimensions: 3.5 inches high, 1.5 inches long and 2.5 inches wide. The part’s own dimensions are not provided.

Final Verdict

The GE WH11X10049 is worth considering when that exact model number matches the dial assembly you need, its main practical advantage is a clearly stated replacement-part number. Without hands-on testing, there is no basis here to comment on installation or operation, and the listing does not establish appliance compatibility. If you cannot verify the part number, hold off and identify the correct component first rather than relying on the package measurements or a visual match.
