Description

This replacement control knob restores smooth, precise control when the original becomes cracked, stripped, or missing. It attaches to the control shaft so you can select settings with a secure, positive feel. What it does:

• Attaches to the control stem to operate the switch, valve, or timer
• Lets you select cycles, temperatures, times, or burner levels
• Restores proper engagement when the old knob spins freely or won't grip the shaft
• Common symptoms: cracked or missing knob, falls off, hard to adjust, won't change settings

What's included:

• 1 control knob

Install notes:

• Disconnect power; for gas appliances, also shut off gas before servicing
• Pull the old knob straight off the shaft—do not pry against the panel
• Align the new knob with the stem (match flat/D orientation) and press firmly until seated
• Rotate through settings to ensure smooth operation
