Range Surface Control Knob WPW10467316 OEM Part

This control knob is tailored for use with a range of Whirlpool brands, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral, as well as compatible appliances from Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. Designed specifically for stoves, ranges, and ovens, it features a grey and chrome finish and plays a critical role in regulating heating elements. The knob facilitates the activation and deactivation of elements and provides the functionality to adjust temperature levels efficiently.<br /><br />With frequent use, the internal mechanism of the knobs may degrade, leading to improper alignment on the shaft. This wear can result in a loss of control over the heating elements, making replacement necessary. To effectively replace the control knob, first ensure the appliance is switched off and has cooled down. Utilize a flathead screwdriver to detach the existing knob, revealing the underlying control shafts. Prior to fitting the new knob, cleanse the control panel and shafts using a degreaser. Once installed, proceed to power on the appliance for normal operation.<br /><br />Sold individually, this control knob is a genuine OEM replacement part, sourced directly from the manufacturer. It is specifically crafted for stoves, ranges, and ovens manufactured by Whirlpool.
