WP3196232 Whirlpool Control Knob for Range/Stove/Oven

Control Knob for Range/Stove/Oven

The control knob is a genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) replacement part designed for Whirlpool ranges, and it is also compatible with certain models from KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, and select Kenmore appliances. This component is essential for selecting and adjusting cooktop burners and oven settings by turning it.

Common issues associated with a malfunctioning control knob include:
- Burners or oven not starting or responding to selection
- Temperature settings or functions not being accurately met
- The knob feeling loose, unstable, or being hard to rotate

These problems typically arise from regular use, leading to wear and tear on the knob assembly. Additionally, exposure to food or liquids can cause the knobs to crack or the controls to become sticky.

The control knob is white with a black indicator stripe and measures 2 inches in diameter. For alternative color options, a black knob with a white stripe is available under part number AP3030723, and an almond-colored knob under part number AP3030736.

This replacement part ensures your appliance operates smoothly and effectively, maintaining the performance and reliability expected from Whirlpool and its associated brands, including Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Whirlpool also manufactures parts for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea products.
