Maytag Range Knob Loose, Cracked or Missing? Control Knob W11132201 – Fix It Fast
A cracked, broken, or missing burner control knob on your Maytag electric range makes it impossible to safely set burner temperature — and it’s one of the most common cosmetic and functional failures on the MET8800FZ series. In most Maytag ranges, the control knob is a stainless steel-faced plastic assembly that clips onto the burner switch shaft. When it cracks, strips, or breaks off entirely, you lose the ability to control that burner — and the exposed shaft can be a safety hazard. ⚡ Common failure point in Maytag MET8800FZ electric ranges. Part W11132201 is the genuine OEM stainless steel replacement knob that installs in minutes with no tools and restores full burner control immediately.
❓ Is This the Right Part?
This is the correct fix if ALL of the following are true:
- ✔ Range powers on and burners function normally when the shaft is turned
- ✔ The burner switch itself works — only the knob is damaged or missing
- ✔ Your range is a Maytag MET8800FZ00, FZ01, FZ05, or YMET8800FZ variant
- ✔ ONLY problem is a cracked, stripped, loose, or missing control knob

If one knob has cracked or stripped, the others on the same range are subject to the same heat cycling and wear. Check all control knobs while you have the range accessible — ordering a full set now is far cheaper than a second shipping charge later and keeps the range looking consistent.
⚙️ Installation
Skill Level: EASY — 2–5 minutes. No tools required. Disconnect power before servicing as a precaution. Pull the old knob straight off the burner switch shaft — it is a friction/clip fit with no screws. Align the new knob with the D-shaped or flat-sided shaft, press firmly until it seats fully, and restore power. Test each burner position to confirm the switch engages correctly through the full rotation.
