Americana Gas stove burner won't turn off

Won’t your Americana gas stove burner turn off? The burner valve is the most likely problem. A faulty range/stove/oven valve or surface burner valve may be unable to close, allowing gas to continue flowing even when the control is set to Off. For safety, turn off the burner's gas supply if possible and avoid using the stove until the problem is repaired. Remove the control knob and carefully try turning the valve stem by hand. If the stem will not rotate, or the burner stays lit in the off position, replace the defective burner valve or surface burner valve. If the valve stem turns normally, inspect the control knob next. A cracked or worn Americana control knob may fail to engage the gas valve stem, leaving the burner on. The same issue can occur with a damaged knob. This troubleshooting applies to a gas stove burner that won't turn off, a gas burner that won't turn off, or an Americana gas stove not turning off. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement valve or knob for your specific range and make sure the part fits.
