I had the same problem. After taking the toaster apart, when it came time to put the screw for the temp knob, I screwed the post all the way down and then backed it off and tested it one rotation at a time. To screw the post back in, go counter clockwise, vice versa for removal. Put it back together (a pain)and attatch the knob. Voila
