Admiral Stove/oven controls don't work
If your Admiral stove or oven controls are not working, the most likely problem is a cracked or stripped control knob that slips on the stem instead of turning it. Check the timer knob first, followed by the thermostat knob, selector knob, and general control knob. Each knob must properly engage its timer stem, thermostat stem, selector switch stem, or switch or valve stem to operate the control. If only one function is affected, inspect that knob for cracks, worn edges, or a loose fit and replace it as needed. If multiple controls stopped responding after a power surge or outage, reset the Admiral range by turning off its power for a few minutes, then restoring power. This can correct a temporary control issue. If the knobs are intact and a power reset does not help, the selector switch, thermostat, timer, or internal control may need testing. These steps apply to common stove controls not working and oven controls not working problems. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement timer knob, thermostat knob, selector knob, or control knob for your Admiral range, stove, or oven.
