Turn Off Power: Unplug the range or turn off the circuit breaker for safety.
Remove Old Knobs:
Firmly grip the old knob and pull straight out.
If stuck, wiggle gently while pulling. Avoid excessive force to prevent stem damage.
Align New Knobs:
Ensure the new knob’s splined interior matches the stem’s ridges.
Some knobs may have markings (e.g., "Off," "Hi," "Lo")—align accordingly.
Push On New Knobs:
Press firmly until the knob sits flush against the control panel.
Test by turning to ensure smooth rotation.
Verify Operation:
Restore power and test each knob for proper function.
If a knob feels loose, check for stem damage or misalignment.
Not compatible with gas ranges or smooth, non-splined stems.
Always confirm compatibility with your specific model before purchasing.
