When your Gibson stove or oven controls are not working, start with the knobs before replacing an internal control part. A cracked or stripped timer knob is the most likely cause if the timer will not engage or rotate its stem. Next, check the thermostat knob, which must grip the thermostat stem to adjust oven temperature. A damaged selector knob can also prevent the function switch from turning, while a worn control knob may slip on a switch or gas valve stem instead of operating it. These failures can make the stove controls not work, leave the oven controls not working, or prevent a burner or oven function from responding even when the range has power. If the knobs appear intact, turn the Gibson range off at the breaker or unplug it for several minutes, then restore power to reset controls affected by a power surge or outage. Enter your model number to find the exact timer knob, thermostat knob, selector knob, control knob, or other replacement part for your specific Gibson range, stove, or oven.
