WPW10316662 Whirlpool Control Knob for Range/Stove/Cooktop

Control Knob for Range/Stove/Cooktop, Black Color.
This item is available for purchase individually and is designed to fit models with a D-shaped shaft. It is compatible with various Whirlpool brands, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, this knob serves as an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool ranges and works with certain Sears-Kenmore and Ikea products.

Typical reasons for knob malfunctions include regular wear and tear due to frequent use. Daily operation involves turning the knobs multiple times, which can gradually wear down the internal electronics or mechanics. Physical damage may also occur if the knobs are hit or tightened too much.

Signs of a failing knob are:

- Difficulty in turning, either too loose or too stiff
- Inability to lock into specific temperature or function settings accurately
- Risk of remaining in the on position
Furthermore, knobs can show signs of wear or discoloration from exposure to intense heat during cleaning.

This genuine Whirlpool OEM part is also suitable for use with some models from Maytag, Jenn-Air, and Kenmore.
