Tappan Gas stove burner won't turn off

When your Tappan gas stove burner won't turn off, the most likely problem is a defective burner valve or surface burner valve that cannot close the gas flow. Turn the control knob to the off position, then remove the knob and carefully try turning the valve stem by hand. If the stem will not rotate, or the gas burner stays lit with the control in the off position, replace the faulty valve. A cracked or broken control knob is the next likely cause because it may no longer grip and turn the gas valve stem. Inspect the knob for damage and replace it if needed. The same check applies to the range knob, which may be damaged even if it looks intact. If the flame continues after the control is off, stop using that burner and shut off the gas supply if necessary until the repair is made. Whether your issue is described as a gas stove won't turn off, gas burner won't turn off, or gas stove not turning off, enter your Tappan model number to find the exact burner valve, surface burner valve, or replacement knob for your stove.
