This control knob assembly replaces a worn, cracked, or missing range/stovetop control knob so you can safely select heat settings and restore reliable manual control of the burner or oven function. What it does:

• Replaces a damaged or missing control knob used to adjust burner/oven settings
• Provides a secure grip and tactile detents for selecting temperature or power levels
• Stops slipping, spinning, or intermittent connection caused by worn splines or broken outer shell
• Restores precise manual control when the range/stovetop does not respond to knob input

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting service.
• Align the knob splines with the shaft and push straight on until fully seated; do not force.
• If the shaft or switch is damaged, replace the underlying component rather than forcing the knob.

• Stops a wobbling, loose, or spinning knob that won't stay engaged
• Helps restore proper user control of temperature/power settings
• Small metal screw built for panel/knob mounting in the control area

• One center knob screw

• Turn off power to the appliance before accessing control area to avoid electrical shock
• Remove the control knob and any trim/bezels according to the appliance manual to reach the screw

• Replaces a failed or intermittent SCR to stop erratic cycling, no-power, or control malfunctions
• Commonly used where electronic switching or phase control is required
• Helps restore stable operation when heating or motor circuits fail to receive proper control signals

• One SCR 8-18 AB 1/2 replacement component

• Disconnect power to the appliance before inspecting or replacing electrical components
• Observe ESD precautions and handle the SCR by its body; avoid touching leads
