This OEM Replacement Part is a Whirlpool-manufactured knob intended for ranges, stoves, and ovens. This part serves as a replacement for a lost, broken, or defective knob. The knob plays a crucial role in turning the stove on and off and adjusting the flame intensity from the burner head. It features a D-shaped shaft and requires no tools for replacement.
Causes of a bad knob can include wear and tear from frequent use, accidental damage from forceful turning or impact, or degradation of the internal mechanism that secures the knob to the control panel. A faulty knob can make it difficult to adjust settings or may prevent the appliance from operating correctly.
Symptoms of a bad Knob include:
- Knob not turning smoothly or slipping
- Difficulty in selecting or changing settings
- Knob falling off or not staying in place
- Cracks or visible damage to the knob
