Frigidaire 316240802 Range Control Knob Black

Product Description

The FRIGIDAIRE 316240802 is a genuine OEM replacement control knob for ranges, stoves, and ovens. It mounts on the front control panel and engages directly with the valve stem or selector shaft to provide mechanical input to the burner or oven controls. Rotating the knob aligns it with the labeled positions on the panel, which regulates gas flow to surface burners or adjusts the heating element setting on electric models. This black knob is a direct OEM part, meaning fit and function match the original. A licensed appliance technician or qualified service professional typically handles this replacement.

This knob is used in residential range, stove, and oven applications where the original control knob has become cracked, stripped, or otherwise nonfunctional. It serves both surface burner control and oven temperature selection positions on compatible Frigidaire-platform appliances. Compatible brands sourced from distributor data include Electrolux, Frigidaire, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Kenmore, Tappan, and Westinghouse. Confirm the part number against the appliance model tag before ordering.

Installation Notes

Disconnect electrical power or shut off the gas supply to the appliance before servicing any control components. The knob pulls off the stem on most configurations and presses onto the replacement stem by hand - no tools are typically required for the knob itself, though panel disassembly may require a Phillips or Torx driver depending on the model. Confirm stem profile and knob bore match before forcing the part into place to avoid cracking the new knob. Work performed on gas appliances should comply with applicable local codes and be performed by a qualified technician.
