Magic Chef Stove/oven controls don't work
If your Magic Chef stove or oven controls are not working, the problem is often a cracked or stripped knob that no longer engages the control stem. Start with the timer knob, followed by the thermostat knob, selector knob, control knob, or another range knob. Each knob must grip and rotate its stem to operate the timer, thermostat, selector switch, burner switch, or gas valve. If a knob spins freely, slips, or does not turn the control, replace it rather than the control itself. A power surge or outage can also affect the controls temporarily, so turn off power to the Magic Chef range, stove, or oven for a few minutes, then restore power and test it. This can help when the stove controls are not working or the oven controls are not working after an electrical interruption. If the problem continues, inspect the knob and the stem for damage before testing deeper oven control board problems. Enter your model number to find the exact timer knob, thermostat knob, selector knob, or control knob replacement for your specific Magic Chef appliance.
