Black Control Knob for Range/Stove/Cooktop
This black control knob is sold individually and is crafted to fit D-shaped shaft models. It supports a variety of brands under the Whirlpool umbrella, such as Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Moreover, it's an OEM replacement part tailored for Whirlpool ranges, and it also works with selected Sears-Kenmore and Ikea models.
Common causes of knob failure include routine wear from frequent usage. Regular turning during daily use can gradually degrade the internal components. Physical damage may also result from excessive force or impact on the knobs.
Indicators of a faulty knob include:
- Excessive looseness or tightness when turning
- Inability to accurately secure specific temperature or function settings
- Possibility of remaining in the on position inadvertently
Additionally, prolonged exposure to high heat during cleaning can lead to visible wear or discoloration.
This genuine OEM part from Whirlpool is also compatible with certain models from Maytag, Jenn-Air, and Kenmore.
