Push button not working on a Chef or Westinghouse gas cooker?

Unlike a rocker or rotary switch, a momentary switch is designed to close only while pressure is applied. On a cooker that typically means a push button on the control panel. With constant use the contacts wear, the return spring weakens and the button can stick in, feel loose or stop responding. Moisture and grease from cooking can also find their way inside. If pressing the button does nothing, or the function it controls only works now and then, the switch is a likely cause and worth testing before other parts.
