Symptoms of a bad burner control knob include:
- The knob not turning smoothly or feeling loose
- Difficulty in adjusting the burner flame or heat level
- The knob being cracked, broken, or missing
- The burner not responding to adjustments made with the knob
This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
