How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: For gas models, turn off gas supply before removing knobs if you will access taps.
- Inspect knobs: Pull off the knobs and check for cracks or rounded internal splines. Replace any damaged knobs.
- Clean shafts: Wipe the exposed shafts with a dry cloth to remove grease and debris.
- Lubricate taps (technician): If gas taps are stiff, a technician can disassemble and regrease them with approved gas valve grease. Do not use household lubricants.
- Replace worn taps/switches: If shafts are bent or excessively worn, replace the gas tap or electric switch assembly.
