Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Knob turns without operating the control shaft
• Controls do not respond when the knob is turned

Check Before Replacing

• Inspect the knob for cracks, missing material, or a stripped internal opening.
• Turn the knob gently and confirm that the control shaft rotates with it; if the knob slips while the shaft remains stationary, the knob may be defective.
