A replacement control knob that restores safe, accurate control of your appliance's settings. Simple push-on design matches original fit and lets you adjust temperature or function with a secure grip. What it does:

• Replaces a worn, cracked, or missing control knob so you can reliably change settings
• Engages the control shaft splines to provide positive, slip-free rotation
• Restores correct tactile feel for precise adjustments
• Helps prevent accidental changes caused by damaged knobs

• One control knob

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Pull the old knob straight off the control shaft; install the new knob by aligning splines and pushing firmly until seated
• Do not force the knob if it resists—check spline orientation and fit first
• If the control shaft is damaged or the knob does not seat properly, replace the control.
