On the other hand, literally last night the physical knob for one of my stove burners came off in my hand leaving me having to use a pair of pliers to turn it off. So, your mileage may vary.
- couchand 4y agoBut you could put the knob back on, right? I mean, it slides off to make it easier to clean or replace, and you just need to slide it back on...?
- jameshart 4y agoIn this case, weirdly and confoundingly, no.
- tunap 4y agoOr, replace the barrel and molex, or maybe solder a couple wires, but where's the fun in that? You could instead replace a high dollar board & / or controller(s) to get back your otherwise basic functionality.
- eimrine 4y agoor put a neighbour knob if you have already realised that you can dismount and mount them again.
- pahae 4y agoI'd rather have some physical knob that I can use to turn something off, even if I have to bust out the pliers. Good luck shutting off some touch control that's on the fritz. The stove at my parents place has some touch control to activate another heating ring(?). Not only is that hard to activate with wet or greasy fingers, but after a couple of years of use it keeps turning itself off now. Thank god that thing fails "closed" and does not (yet?) spontaneously activate effectively doubling the heating power.
