Danby Gas stove burner won't turn off

Won’t your Danby gas stove burner turn off? Stop using the burner and shut off the gas supply at the appliance or main shutoff until you identify the problem. The most likely cause is a defective burner valve or surface burner valve that cannot close the gas flow. Remove the control knob and carefully turn the valve stem by hand. If the stem will not rotate, feels damaged, or the gas burner stays lit when the control is in the off position, replace the valve. A cracked or broken control knob is less common, but it may fail to turn the gas valve stem even when the knob appears to move normally. Inspect the knob for cracks, a worn center, or other damage, and replace it if needed. These checks can help diagnose why your Danby gas stove won't turn off or why a gas burner won't stop. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement burner valve, surface burner valve, or control knob for your Danby gas stove.
