First went to an appliance distrib. store.They would have to part.Was qouted a price.Wenthome and went online to partselect.com and saved 40% even with shipping.Got the part the next day!Pulled old knob off and pushed new knob on.Thank you for making it easy.
We have had this appliance for 18 months. Within one month the first knob broke. A month later, the second knob broke. We have gently been using the remaining 2 knobs for 4 burner positions until recently when the other 2 broke. I am hoping these new knobs are made better then those that came with the appliance.
previous owner broke knobs by not pushing down to turn on, then leaving the D rings on when they switched them. Only 1 burner was operating
I carefully pulled the 3 D rings that were left on the posts of the burner controllers with a pair of needle nosed pliers, made sure there was nothing on the controller posts, then put the new knobs on. Make sure there are no D rings on the oven knob posts, 2 of the knobs were fine, they just didn't have D rings in them. Partselect was great. Items were received within 2 days. I would definately recommend them.
Burner knob got stripped out, taking them off and on...
Got on line and ordered part and lined up flat side of inside of knob and slid it on... That simple... The person who put them on after cleaning stove never knew there was a flat side inside knob.. We never stop learning, do we???
first I checked continuity through the surface element (burner) switch (rheostat) which was fine. then found the screws holding the burner top on and removed, this made it possible to lift up the burner top and remove the burnt out surface element.which was easy to see. take down the number, buy a new one and re hook up the four wires to the new element. (always mark down where the wires went)
I removed the split knob and slipped the new knob right on. The knobs look metal but are actually plastic and split over time and use. Really easy to replace. Thanks part select.
the cracked knob left the round piece of metal that is part of the knob inside the stovetop, preventing the new knob from being installed at the right height. We were able to remove the metal piece and place the new knob on at the correct height. We were very pleased at how fast the part was received.
glass top,small burner did not function, open circuit in heating coil element
Remove top oven door,remove two hex head screws located underneath cook top at the front on both sides,slid the range top forward approx. three(3) inches to obtain access needed to unplug the wiring harness, located behind the vertical part of the cook top,removed the cook top,placing it on a padded table with the glass side down,disconnected the three (3)wire spades and unscrewed three screws anchoring heating element to the cook top frame, replaced defective heating assembly with new. Repeated above steps noted above,in reverse order. And yes, all work was done after power was shut off at power panels dedicated oven circuit.
