This genuine Westinghouse control knob, part number 85800190081951, is the silver blade style knob from the Forte look used on a number of Westinghouse ovens. Ovens it suits include the WVE613S and WVE615S, the WVE626W and WVE636S, along with the WVE655S, the WVE665S and the WVG655WLP. You may also see it referenced as 0019008195, and a pack of four is available as 4055981734 if you are replacing the full set.

Westinghouse oven knob spinning or broken

Each knob turns a function selector or thermostat shaft behind the control panel. The plastic insert that grips the shaft wears or splits over time, helped along by the heat rising from the oven door, and the knob starts to slip, spin freely or fall off. Cracked or faded knobs also make it hard to see what setting you have chosen. Fitting a matching silver Forte knob restores a positive grip on the control and keeps the panel looking consistent with the other knobs.

Fitting the replacement knob

Switch the oven off at the wall and let the control panel cool. Grip the old knob firmly and pull it straight off the shaft without levering, which can mark the panel. Line the new knob up with the flat on the shaft and push it on until it seats. Turn it through its settings to check it moves the control and returns cleanly to off.

Questions about this part

Should I buy one knob or the four pack?

Check your model number on the compliance plate against the listed models first. If only one knob is damaged, this single knob is enough. If you want every knob matching and fresh, the four pack 4055981734 is the better buy.
