This gas stove, a GE, wife shouted," I cannot tun this broiler off!":eek: It would not turn off-I turned the broiler knob to OFF-it would not respond-I turned it to the ON position-to the LEFT-counterclockwise-it turned off-the glowblock went off too...Now, the knob is on correctly (not off center):confused:
Again, when turned to OFF clockwise position, the glow block and the gas come on and it lights the broiler-THIS IS DANGEROUS-I cut the gas off at main line-THERE ARE TWO OTHER POSTS ON OTHER SITES saying HELP! I cannot turn off my broiler-one says their broiler comes ON unexpectedly, anytime! GE doesn't want to talk about it....:mad:
there is something dangerously fishy here....

Remove the oven thermostat knob and check for a crack inside.

If the knob is fine, replace the oven thermostat.

If you need the correct part number for the knob, post the color of it.

- The oven thermostat Part number: AP2623073
