Keep searches simple. Use keywords, e.g. "leaking", "pump", "broken" or "fit".
original light grey color grates stained and unsightly--no amount of scrubbing or cleansers would make them look nice.
Opened the box and took out the black color grates~~removed discolored grates and put the new ones on. Looks like a brand new stove and much nicer to look at as it is the first thing you see when you enter the kitchen.

I wanted to replace the old knobs which were impossible to clean.
It was very simple: I pulled off the old knobs and installed the new ones. All I had to do to install the new ones was to press them into place. They give my stovetop a whole new look!

Search for replacement knobs for my very old surface burnner
I shall clarify that it's not the repairing is difficult, but the process to find the right parts. My surface burner from Magic Chef is over 20 years old abut works very well. However, the knobs are broken. It took me many hours searching online and visiting multiple appliance stores to finally find the correct one here. So, I want to share my experience here. My old original knobs are these: https://www.partselect.com/PS2091459-Whirlpool-7711P150-60-Surface-Burner-Knob.htm?SourceCode=3&SearchTerm=PS2091459, and they can be perfectly replaced by these: https://www.partselect.com/PS2007393-Whirlpool-12500060-Set-of-Five-Surface-Burner-Knobs.htm?SourceCode=3&SearchTerm=7711P337-60.

Please share with your future customers.

Thank you!
